Dregs of Wit & Wisdom
This is a collection of poetry amassed over the course of a decade of personal dredging and wroth with wry wit and world-weary wisdom. At least it is hoped anyone reading it will find it so to some extent or in some way. To be found are musings of emotion and experience observed beneath the lens of a verbal microscope. Some take the form of essays, some stories, some characterizations, some light verse, and some random snippets. From all that are thoughts and truths that are bittersweet and admissions both funny and forlorn sifted from the muck and mire of one man's mental state. Enjoy it for what it the observations, opining, and outpouring from a heart's abyss.

I feel like there is a poem in here for everyone. You'd be hard-pressed not to find at least one poem that you'd like. My favorite section was "Odes". This book was a fascinating selection of poems. I felt like I was reading the author's journal the whole time. You really get to know him in this book. He believes in God, fights loneliness, and wears his heart on his sleeve. This was a nice casual read with some truly great poems sprinkled throughout it.
