 His writing ~

Lindsay says 'his inspirations come from life experiences, prayer, and people he meets.'
His preferred format is open verse mixed with occasional rhyme. His poems range from medieval love poetry, to gothic verses, to a yet softer romantic tone where he wishes to "reveal the beauty of romance," and finally, Lindsay expresses some compelling political views in his collection of "Poetry for The Revolution."

In any case, his rich, collective work will certainly appeal to any taste. You'll read one of his poem, and you'll be drawn to read the next, and the next........His writing style: Magnetic!
