Poems By The Skunk River Valley Boys

The joy of reading Poems By The Skunk River Valley Boys by Barry and Steve Benson is to watch grown men pay such careful attention to the world. The first "rule" in Barry's poem "Rules for Frustrated Poets" is to "Heed the image" - and that's exactly what these poems do. Here you'll find people (like Aunt Clara) places (mostly Iowa), rock and roll songs, the aurora borealis, plants and animals ( wolves, deer, pheasants, muskrats, pigs, hippos, bees). In the end these are poems about remembering, but what they really teach us is how to see. 9781421837284 1421837285 168 Poetry NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=SfRNrgEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
