Excuse Me: a Book of Poems

by Dave Luton

This book is probably not for those who can only appreciate traditional poetry. In this book, you will find that the style is usually free verse, often personal and sometimes even confessional. It covers the following my childhood and growing up; depression and the ups and downs of life; injustice and inequality; and love, faith and friendship. These poems are full of the honesty (and perhaps sometimes naïveté) of a young man suffering from clinical depression while coping with a recent divorce while trying to find the meaning of life and answers to soul-searching questions. These poems have greatly helped me, and I sincerely hope that they will do the same for you and speak to you in some way.
