Small Town Man’s first poetry book is written in a plain spoken style with no cryptic, illusionary or dream-like verses that have to be deciphered for meaning. In the poem, 'Not in My Lifetime' he writes, ’ 'Peace on Earth' what a beautiful phrase; in reality it never has existed on this world-wide stage.’ This is poetry for the average reader or for the poetry aficionado; both should enjoy the contents within. A wide variety of topics are covered; love, war, death, nature, science, pollution, climate change, kids, pets, retirement, etc. Poems are presented in either a serious or humorous way. For the writer, being a wounded Vietnam veteran himself, 'Not in God’s Name' is a powerful and emotional indictment of war. 'A Lovely, Lovely Day' focuses on a too common problem faced by returning vets from the conflicts in the Middle East. 'The Old Folks' is a farcical romp through the actions of our senior citizens. In 'Muses of a Small Town Man' you will also find pages of Limericks that will amuse you as well as insightful personal Observations such as Observation 17: The most wonderful and the most nerve-racking word in the world-kids.
