Description
Poetry. "Thomas Fink is a unique craftsman and perhaps one of the best to write poems in form—but Fink's brilliance is his inability to tell anything straight...Fink knows how to write poems that challenge the mind, pleasure the eye, tickle the tongue, and fascinate the ear."—Steven Karl
