when we wake, New Poems
John Rennell Secor
Like the Roman poet Virgil, John Secor guides readers through landscapes past and present, exotic and quotidian, personal and political. Each poem is a milestone that connects Canada to eastern Kentucky, Boccaccio to Brenonna Taylor, the witch in the Wizard of Oz to a mother whose shot of "Get Out" saves her child from a burning house. Each voice is distinct and compelling.

I love following John Secor's kaleidoscopic trip across time and borders, with perspective views of everything from sports to religion to family to the shock of current events. Please take a little time to follow his twisting turning life in terms of art, literature, and the occasional bicycle ride. I'm a fan, join me.
