Bruce’s art and poetry reflect the human condition. He depicts his inwardly struggling subjects with sensitivity and beauty. To him, within our wretchedness glows our potential for glory.

Portrait
He . . . —
—
Was an
Inward looking man.
—
His gaze . . .
—
Was downcast
—
As he looked
Forward.
—
His
Features . . . .
—
Aligned themselves
—
Along
—
An axis
—
Of
—
Determinism.
—
When . . . . . he
—
Smiled
—
It
—
Vanished
—
As soon
As it came.
—
When he
Cried
—
No
One
Could
Tell.
—
When he
Yelled
—
No
One
Could
Hear
Him . . . . . — —
