Welcome to the world of Jason Ryberg–a world of true crimes and misdemeanors in the American grain, transformed, through the poet’s retelling, into miniature works of art.

Rattlesnake tough but also tender-hearted. -Kevin Rabas, Poet Laureate of Kansas (2017-2019)

Reading Ryberg is like driving a pick-up truck across Kansas on shrooms, and his imagery, as fresh as a midnight S curve, takes the reader on a journey from city streets to wheat fields, navigating through a landscape bright with the five-battery-flashlight of a moon. A Secret History of the Nighttime World, the twelfth book of poetry by Ryberg, delivers one great breath of fire directly from his heart onto the page.
