Poetry. At once lyrical, humorous, heartbreaking, bitter, and wry--this engaging collection introduces a character like none other seen in the history of poetry. AMERICAN PROPHET is a collection of poems that details the sojourns of a so-called Prophet across the American landscape, from coastal beaches to strip malls to cities to heartland farms. As the Prophet tries continually but fails to reach "his people," his urgent messages go unnoticed or get swallowed by the machines and cacophony of contemporary America.
