{"product_id":"mockingbirds-contemplating-semicolons-9781952411090","title":"Mockingbirds Contemplating Semicolons","description":"Somewhere between Dylan Thomas at his most surreal and Groucho Marx at his most dada-inspired, there is a glib gone world, an irrepressible slapstick zone to which only the fearless may go-dangerously frolicsome, recklessly free, a mosh pit of thought and word so fractiously giddy and infectiously inviting, so combative and alluring in tone and intent, it can fracture your bones (and elevate your soul). Playful? Yes. Profound? When you least expect it. But it's a brouhaha you cannot resist. Behold -- George Wallace, Writer in Residence, Walt Whitman Birthplace\u003cbr\u003eSurrealism with the heart of a blessed, laughing madman. Deuchars plays with his words, creates language, and never tortures his fabric. A classic car of a volume and we never know if the brakes will work from one page to the next. As Jim would say: Om.-- Puma Perl, writer\/poet, author of Birthdays Before and After and more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eMockingbirds Contemplating Semicolons \u003c\/em\u003eis a delight. Deuchars' poems are both surreal and eminently readable. The inventive and playful language pulls the reader along, and while you're never sure where each poem will take you, it's always a memorable ride; one you'll look forward to repeating once you've reached the end.-- William Taylor Jr.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-13651706\"\u003eJim D.
