Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of poems reflects Joe Spencer's impressions from various points in his life. Unlike photographs that capture a scene in two dimensions, these poems hope to stimulate a third dimension, emotion, and to remind readers of similar moments they have lived or imagined. If this seems a tall order for so few words, that's the work that brought the author to poetry-though Spencer is more likely to describe himself as a dreamer than as a poet. He spends (in his own words) "inordinate amounts of time" observing, listening, reading, reflecting, dreaming and writing-which occasionally takes form as a poem.
