A Chasm Flight: 123 Poems Spanning Four Years

by Colin Knapp

Colin Knapp returns with A Chasm Flight, his third book of poems, his first in print. Take a journey over the edge and speed down the sides of cliffs with relationships, modern culture, kids, and work -- along the bottom of the canyon probing insecurity and uncertainty, and then rising slowly with confidence and coming up over the rim of the gorge with redemption, new perspective, and soaring off into a strange new purple sky. Knapp's electrifying voice and his ironic take on himself, others, and life in general make this collection a must-have for those in need of an escape valve, crafty diversion, or simply to see what he has found so interesting. 123 poems spanning four years -- 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017. Got vacation time? Got your boarding pass? Stow your tray tables and return your seats to their full, upright position. This is your Captain speaking. We're cleared for departure!
