Synopsis
The poems in Blackberries were for the most partwritten in the 1990's and the early 2000's. The titlepoem is a declaration of the poet's intent to let hispoems mature prior to publication, an actionoccurring a decade later. The poems in thisvolume differ from his earlier work in that they aremore intensely personal, technically moreaccomplished, and more consistent in voice, rhythmand sound. The stories are still there. The mostdeveloped series of poems concerns his son'ssuicide.

About the Author
Mr. Carlson has been writing poetry for 50 years. His aim has been to create poems in which emotions are honest, descriptions accurate, images evocative, and language accessible. Some of his poems are long and dense; others short and spare. They are by turns powerful and delicate, thought provoking and playful, solemn and funny. Sharing his experiences, observations, and thoughts as a son, student, brother, lover, father and friend will call up your own experiences, observations and thoughts. Written aloud, they should be read aloud to be fully enjoyed. The words are to be felt on the tongue. Born the son of missionaries in Sierra Leone, West Africa, Mr. Carlson currently lives with his wife and dog in Alexandria, Virginia. He has lived previously in Indiana, California, Oregon, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Colorado and Utah. He is a retired federal official who has also worked at the state and local level. He has degrees from Wabash College and Yale University.
