Original free verse poetry. A mash-up of mid-century Catholic childhood, the Beat movement, collegiate counterculture in the 60's and 38 years of white collar commuting through Chicago's Loop bring these poetic musings to light. Ksander's work has moved in a romantic direction, with a taste for magic reality and ironic whimsy. Special interests include the process of memory, duality of experience and the perennial themes of love and loss.
