About this title

Synopsis

CONTENTS: In these forty five poems the author locates in scenes and situations of decay and depression the last bit of humanity, beauty, or love left us. Whether considering "The Last Lighthouse" in New England operated by people and not machines, how society treats its war veterans in "Exercise Walk at the Veterans Hospital,"gender issues in "Looking for the Men's Room at the All Girl's College," the death of John Lennon in "Outside the Dakota," the importance of landscape in shaping our lives and culture in "View of the Connecticut River Valley from the Summit House, Mt. Holyoke" and "Flying to Detroit," to contemplation of growing older while watching the sun set on a Cape Cod beach in "The Geese of Swan River," these poems will make you smile, or frown, or nod your head with knowing truth as only poety can reveal it.
