IMMOLATION ROW

About the Book

IMMOLATION ROW is a book-length poem in free verse, which is an extended interior monologue. In its freewheeling, unpredictable manner, the poem is as much a fugue as anything approaching objectivity. One door opened leads to another and another. Sometimes the tone is somber, sometimes playful, but throughout the book, the language is always engaging. The aim of the poet is not objectivity, but demonstrate the sense of wonder people can find in a world of uncertainty.
