Opis

Poetry should, always, tell a story. This need not be a conventional story, but, at the end of the poem, the author should have conveyed something to the reader. It might be a feeling, it might be an impression, it might even be, God forbid, an actual story. But, when the reader finishes a poem, they should feel something other than, "Oh goodness, I must be really stupid, I don't understand." I can't promise you that you will like every one of the poems in this book. I can promise you that if you do not get an impression, a feeling, or a story from them, the fault is mine. A poet isn't, just by writing poetry, a better person than other folks. They are not smarter. They are not more enlightened. All they are is willing to foist their impressions of the world or ideas onto the world. And that's okay. Because that's an attempt at communication and communication is not a horrible thing. So, I would ask you, to read through the book, sample the poems, and decide for yourself what you like, what it means, and what, to you, is drivel. I've done my best to fill the book with work for which I am proud. But that's just me, you will have to make up your own damn mind.
