Publisher Description: Revised Edition: LukivPress (Victoria, BC), 2019. Previously published as Poems of Malady (LukivPress Online Quesnel, BC], 2007). // An excerpt // My Uncle With Cancer // I found him, skeletal / And ring-eyed, / Stepping between fall leaves / On the asphalt shingles. / "Uncle Billy. What'er ya / Doin' up there?" // He looked down at me on the grass / And yelled, somewhat weakly, / "I changed all the washers today, / And I had a couple of leaks to tar up." / He waved a hammer- / A sceptre against dark clouds. / "Gotta get the place ship shape / For your Auntie Elsie before I / Kick the bucket." |
