Sobre IBD

The Only Universe I Have Ever Known, is poet Taiyu John Robertson’s third volume of poetry. Covering the terrain of alcoholism, recovery, childhood, his work as a criminal defense lawyer, the parenting of his son, and his growing practice as a Zen Buddhist, these poems bring forth a clever mix of raw gritty realism and spiritual struggle. Not for the faint of heart.
