Cafeteria Poetry

The book title Cafeteria Poetry was chosen because all of this material was

written in a local cafeteria. Many of the poems in this volume were first written

when Linwood was a ninth grader attending Southern Nash Senior High School in

Baily North Carolina. The original drafts were lost over the years, but the contents

remained with Linwood forever. They were simply recreated for this book. Each

poem is an original, and full of wisdom and curiosity. Some are simply funny but

always thought provoking. Linwoods hope is that everyone will find something in

this first book that strikes a chord for them.
