So What? - Paperback

by Hayden Church (Author)

In So What?, the second collection from Hayden Church, poetry channels spirits of the past, specters skulking around the void, slogging through the detritus of time. The great Jackson County War, an invasion by the Great Possums, ravages the New South. Moses, a man in trouble, looks out from the pier, horrified, with a vision from God. Richard Nixon, in exile, surveys the landscape of American politics. John Wayne's ass. Love as chattel. Gomer Pyle. Tortured fantasies. Brief misunderstandings. Haunted, entropic what-ifs.

Poetry won't bring any of it back.

But so what?
