Future Pass by John W. Sexton
A collection by a poet who is not a poet but the writer of a poem, an experiment of personas and online journals of the emerging poet. Not as a masked pretender but as an actor of the cosmic light, a vessel of the poem’s greater work. Almost political and yet the lay life on […]
