Poems of rumination, verbal play, assonance, dissonance, alliteration, silliness and sadness, over topics of all sorts from Dumbo to Oscar Wilde.

Poems of American culture and politics, stage and street, city and country, secular and sacred. Lots of quotable material.

Poems taken from a current life of moseying around a small Ohio river town.

A field of essays sown with every sort of odd thought and nurtured lovingly by its solitary, somewhat irascible author. He discusses using bugs as models, isolation chambers, the nihilistic tendencies of rational thought, moss, theater, art, good books, success and failure, Christianity, middle school textbooks, trash cans, getting justice, ballooning government, medical care costs, Christmas, adoption, fasting. The list continues. By the end of it you'll think you know a lot.
