Casual Burning

CASUAL BURNING is a collection of poems that uncover and strip away the flawed, yet redemptive human qualities found just below the surface of a cold, imperfect world. These are the poet's word pictures, confessions, and observations--fragile bits of discovery and hard lessons learned at a volatile interface between technology, religion, and culture.
