About the Book

BETTER LEFT UNSAID is a poetic statement of unabashed courage that dares plumb the waters of self and other-examination while also relating universal relevancy, a place where even “tainted certainty” must be acknowledged. Hoover’s images are at once clear and precise. The works combine both subtle and raking sounds to produce a genuinely holistic experience. Michael J. Hoover is a master of symbol, irony and tempered, periodically restrained, tone; his commentary ranges from the serenade of heart’s song through the satirical to the sardonic. His vision acknowledges an acceptance of “God’s purse where there is no change.”
