About the Author: Joseph Crow Riley -- [noun]: A beat poet working the streets. If Darth Vader, Kit Marlowe, Woody Allen, and somebody noble were crammed into that trans-mat thingamajig that turned Jeff Goldblum into a fly, the ungodly creature that emerged would most likely be something like Joseph Crow Riley. His life is a never ending tug of war between the "priest" and the "poet." The priest wants to be austere and puritanical; the poet wants to be a raging mass of self-indulgence. He would like to become rich and famous and do both in an odd way. His purpose in life seems to be making people question the status quo, challenging the mainstream, and be inevitably destroyed by the capitalist machine. Joseph Crow Riley has won many awards for his writing. He currently resides in Southern New Jersey, sharing his home with three dogs, a cat, a bird, and the occasional flea.
