The Dandy Poems and His Little Theatres

The Dandy Poems and his Little Theatres charts a boy’s first love through its many stages. Each sonnet and poem is presented as a little theater of its own but can be read as one work through one man’s escapades through admiration, love, loss, attraction, separation, exasperation, and the ultimate devotion to another’s spirit. The reader experiences the many shades, half light and dark of metaphor, allusion, and figurative language as well as the musicality of words spun within a mostly poetic, sonnet framework.

An additional poem, Return to Pangaea is also included, a sci-fi epic poem that speaks to democracy, the environment, the American social landscape, and rubs against current mores.
