Here is a book that speaks to the heart of the times. It is from someone who truly understands the grating tension inherent in living, in breathing, in having to surface from the morass of everyday. Anxiety was the poet?s enemy without recognizing it as such for a long time. He has lived through the years fighting the battle through interludes of stasis and mobility.
