About Lucas Clark
Lucas Clark is from a small farming community in Northeast Ohio. His focus lies in studying and composing poetry; however, he loves teaching across genres in other areas of English studies to understand the overlap within disciplines. His poetry is mostly concerned with meditating in the experience of nature and relishing the love of close friendships. You can probably find Clark out in the woods walking, rain or shine.
