Tony Elton Peacock grew up on a farm in southeastern North Carolina. He graduated from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1984. Since that time, he has earned income preparing tax returns, scrubbing shirt collars, serving vegetables in a cafeteria, selling ice cream, and machine operator in a turbocharger factory — the impetus for “Temporary Balance.” His poetry has appeared in the Mount Olive Review and The Thomas Wolfe Review. Tony currently lives in Chapel Hill, where he pays low rent and supports his writing habit by waiting tables. (1997)
