Publisher's Synopsis
If you are wondering where the lions are, they are here in James Collins' latest collection of poems; fierce, yet merciful lions. This selection of Collins' poetry is a masterful work of outstanding artistry and skill. The poems, richly creative, honest, and filled with profound self-knowledge, deal with the body, mind, and spirit of man. In James Collins' words: "This body is only a rumor, / not a possession you can keep.... live at that address in forever / you currently rent..." and "we wait for a / sign to see / who will paint the entire / canvas blue and / start over". Wonderful imagery. Wonderful energy. Wonderful language. Earl LeClaire, poet
