And the next stop could be his last . . . BIG TROUBLE IN A SMALL TOWN It starts with an unusual request: "On this trip there will be no cussing, no drinking, no gambling, and no loose women."

But that can't compare to what's waiting for them at Fredericksburg. In this quiet little town, every man, woman, and monk will reveal their true colors. Green for greed. Yellow for cowardice. Black for pure... Views: 253
As gunfire boomed overhead, lead flying every which way, Mississippi grabbed the money sacks, jamming them into Butch's saddlebags. His own horse was step or two way—too far to worry with the cash. He could be shot down in that distance. He gave Butch's horse a hard slap on the rump. The mare leaped forward, then took off running. Mississippi jumped into his saddle and sank spurs. How had he gotten roped into riding with this greedy, bloodthirsty gang? If he ever saw an out, he'd damn sure take it. Views: 253

Friendship, love, and the potential energy of change animate these poems of walking through the New York City.Broadway, the famous artery, both off the grid and definitive of Manhattan as it cuts its way downtown, is a metaphor for Katz's path through these poems: from Lincoln Plaza on the Upper West Side to the African Burial Ground and the courthouse downtown, Katz mines his native city for the deep humanity that undergirds its streets.

In poems such as "Juneteenth," "Ivanka Skirting," and "This Beautiful Bubble," we encounter his reckoning with a divisive culture that can, he suggests, be healed through our daily acts—through a kind of alert graciousness that also defines his poetry. In this moving collection,... Views: 253
