Inhaltsangabe

Just Saying is an older poet’s reactions to being-in-the world. Reflecting, responding, maybe even half-philosophizing, half-admonishing. Poems about the natural world, about politics and the mess the world is in, about literature, especially Shakespeare, about the universe and our place in it, about time and temporality and getting old and facing mortality and the death of friends, about the recent pandemic. Thoughtful, playful, ironic, angry, tongue-in-cheek, sarcastic, wry. Sometimes provocative and maybe even proverbial. A poet with a lifetime’s accumulating experiences observing from the margins of our strange world. A poet who wonders and whose mind wanders and who does not mince his words. A seasoned poet who speaks from both the head and the heart about everything and about nothing. Just Saying.
