    About this ebook

    In this collection of poems, words pivot, frolic, and tease evoke emotion, as notes played out on a keyboard. For example, in the poem Me Too, words transform into chords illustrating how love can bestow pleasure while, at the same time, impart pain.

      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’
