Human Resources

by Jesse Waters

Human Resources is a collection of brutal honesty shot through with longing. Waters keeps a close eye fixed on the personal while his poems wrestle history, faith, the darkness and absurdity of the human condition. Waters is a wonderful poet-at turns funny and heartbreaking-and certainly one to watch for the long haul.

Well, he is a professor at my college, which may have me biased, but I read his work before I got to know him, and I like the simplicity of it. It's simple but personal and it's very similar to his manner of speech.

Pretty good, and I usually dislike poetry (mostly due to a complete lack of understanding).
