Jim Rapp, in his latest collection of poems, Stepping into the Unknown, follows a familiar pattern, organizing the poems into broad sections: 1) Connections - poems celebrating friendship and the many ways and days we set aside to enjoy them, 2) Habitat - looking at the world in which we live, celebrating the its beauty and utility, 3) Watchmen on the Walls - prophetic thoughts about the cosmos we have constructed and how it serves or, too often, fails to serve us well, 4) The World's Oldest Profession - poems that bore in on the flawed political system and shines a hard light on self-serving...
