Sustenance

$12.95

Poetry. These are unforgettable poems by a dazzling new poet who gives us just what his title promises: sustenance -Ronald Wallace. The poems in SUSTENANCE are plain-spoken observations, bluntly honest, yet incisive enough to punch holes in the fabric of the everyday: Every book a copy, this blue sky’s a constant/ fabrication, and the sheet of glass I watch/ for slip-ups through, for holes in the story/ to emerge… With wit and restraint, the author explores the lofty heights and dark corners of the America he knows so well. Anstett lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
