Connecting Reflections represents a collection of poetry written over the past 15 years. Divided into sections, some poems are meditative and spiritual, some experiential, and others political in nature. Some of the poems are geometrically shaped, at times "concrete," while others are a combination of conventional and original forms. This varied collection of poems offers a more complete look into William''s many-sided life. For as Albert Camus observed, "To create is an act of generosity." Originally, titled Words Heard and Unheard, friend T. J. Brauer''s illustration for the book cover inspired the title change to Connecting Reflections.

It is a selection of poems I wrote over a period of two years. The ones that are shaped fall in that shaped "concrete" category. Word processing makes it easier to work out such designs than typing them out as e e cummings did occasionally.
