by John Holt (Author)
"From brown bags to junk, inside angles to being crazy pissed off, John Holt wraps his emotions and insights into poetry that you will mesmerize and intrigue..." - Marcy Birdweather, Marcy's Musings Holt is more commonly known for his prose -- novels like Plain Crazy in Paradise, Blown Away Under the Big Sky, and The Lost Patrol, or fact-filled articles in such publications as Men's Journal, Fly Fisherman, and Crossroads. He likes writing about the Great Outdoors, the beauty and savagery of nature, pastoral sojourns into the wild. But here Holt reveals another side of himself -- the poet. Here are nearly three score of his poems, which like his books show a mastery of language and an introspection that touches both mind and spirit.
