I am Donald Reith – contemporary poet from Astoria, Queens.
I am a working class, progressive, empathetic, down-to-earth rhymer of German-Irish stock.
I am a union ironworker, construction safety manager, and construction safety inspector.
Enjoy my original poetry with curated music videos in our ABOUT section!
I will never forget this bit of advice my Father – Donald Joseph Reith – informed of: “Everything is fine and dandy – till the shit hits the fan.”
I hope my original poetry and curated music videos will be enjoyable – and lift your mood.
