Poems from Kevland

by Kevin Mcnelis

Overview

Poems from Kevland is an invitation to explore a small part of what it is like to live inside the massively disorganized brain of daydreaming husband, father and grandfather. As a life-long corporate accountant and program manager, he wants nothing more than to leave the structured corporate world of deadlines and greed, and become a full-time artist, junk collector... and a memory making, picture-taking, rainbow chasing inventor of new colors .
Kevland is the inside of his scrambled brain.
It is a wonderful place to visit.

About the Author

Kevin William McNelis is the fourth of five children from Irish immigrant parents. His parents grew up poor. His father was one of eleven children from Killybegs Ireland, and became a prominent Psychiatrist in the US exclusively through scholarships starting at the age of 13. His mother, from Cork Ireland, was a fantastical story-teller, who filled her kid’s brains with an awareness that anything that could be imagined could be achieved. Kevin’s siblings became a doctor of physics, an artist, a champion wrestler, and a nautical-cartographer/comedian
Living his entire life in and around Maryland, the author has been married to his beautiful wife Julie for thirty-eight years. Together they have three grown children, each of whom (thankfully) has their mother’s good looks and brilliant mind.
Kevin has created a happy world inside his head…which his wife calls Kevland…to escape his 40+ year career as a manager in a major defense corporation, and the constant chaos of always being surrounded by people who are smarter than he (or is it him?).
