Description
These are the poems I seek. These are the poems that resonate with me; that speak to me. I demand highly literate, technically adept, and intelligent verse when I read poetry and this is exactly what I got upon reading Rufus Skeen's debut collection, 'Lost For Words.' Shades of Merwin, Sandburg, Frost, Gunn . . . these poems are that good I compare them with the greats. I feel privileged to have read this special and powerful collection. If you love good poetry, that is equal parts sensitive and cerebral, philosophical and celebratory, hopeful and ruminative - look no further. A wonderful collection.- William Cook, author of Corpus Delicti, and Gaze into the Abyss: The Poetry of Jim Morrison.
