What is the
HeartLink Foundation?
Simply, when I win the New Mexico Lottery
and/or as I receive donations from other
entities I intend to set up a philanthropic
foundation to administer grant making. Here
is the mission statement:
Mission Statement
The HeartLink Foundation supports
creative people and effective
institutions committed to building more
just, vibrant, inclusive and peaceful
communities, communities that interact
compassionately with all species.
A vision statement about how the HeartLink
Foundation intends to conduct its business,
a description of the program areas or
initiatives, and some basic policies about
grant making can be found here:

For all of 2009, and then some, I lived
in the Piedra Lumbre Basin of Norteņo
(northern New Mexico), about 20 miles west
of Abiquiu. I completed the larger
work of strictly Norteņo poems and
prose titled
The Song
of It. Before I left in
February of this year, my friend Corinna
Stoeffl and I completed our
photographic and literary collaboration,
Essence:
contemplations in image and word.
During that time I wrote other pieces
that didn't exactly fit into either
collection. So, "Always Near" is a
compilation that begins with poems that are,
again, very regional, and somewhat mystic,
then it moves to the city of Albuquerque and
more international settings, and concludes
with relationship to family, to
society and to Self.
