Publisher's Synopsis
This is the eighth volume of poetry by Paul F. Lenzi. A timeless collection of one hundred original poems that touch upon a variety of subjects. Emotions, experiences, memories and dreams are all treated with the author's patently thoughtful and provocative style. His customary use of the free verse form is especially enjoyable for its rare poetic clarity as well as for his masterful use of language. Lenzi has a special talent for metaphor that makes for memorable turns of phrase. "Inside the Smoke" merits a place in every personal library of contemporary American poetry.
