Much as I try, I cannot shut my eyes and ears to what people do.

As my brain processes all the information that my eyes and ears send, it engages my heart and causes it not to rest.

Life has a strange way of hitting you from so many different directions, and everything we experience brings forth some sort of feeling. Some of us keep that feeling to ourselves, some of us express it out loud, and some of us write it down.

Though a cat does get shot in a poem in My Advice to Pilgrims -after it is found killing a bird at the feeder in the front yard. The remainder of the 92 poems here are, by-in-large, void of gunfire. But all are equally unwavering in their own version of in-your-face-ness; and are patently bereft of nostalgia and sentimentality. Each poem seems to have its own point.
