Art Rosch (12/3/1947 / Central Illinois)
Biography of Art Rosch
Born by mistake on Planet Earth, originally
assigned a more paradisical world in a distant
galaxy. Finding myself here, I made what
adaptations were possible, and have constructed
a reasonable life in which I play music, do
photography (at which I even make some money)
and write all kinds of literature.
My photography has been published in Pop Photo,
Shutterbug, etc and can be found at www.artsdigitalphoto.com
Art Rosch's Published Books:
I had a short story published in Playboy Magazine,

1978. Poetry publications include 'Feral Tenderness'
by Bozongo Press, and 'The Life and Times of
Ricardo Tacobueno' by Barking Platypus Books.

not feel the bird’s emotion?
It knows the sun is coming,
the day is alight.
It breaks forth from its flock,
