    About this ebook

    Raw, candid, and ironic, Simkin's style is direct and challenging. In this, his first short collection of poems, he takes us on a journey, through pain, doubt, and annoyance at hypocrisy, to moments of rapture and mystical perspectives.
    Simkin paints life warts and all, rewarding us along the way with vivid descriptions and succinctly painted paradoxes.
