Delightful? A few poems are. Poignant they all remain, & dog me.
With his one-of-a-kind poetry style, Dean trains his unique eye on the end of the world, or of humankind, death, the destiny of humanity, the Second Coming & Judgment.

There is no escape like reading! What about reading about what one may never escape from? Dean’s words took me into that darkening day. He used the color of meaning to paint the way.
Yet, I never felt like running from it. I wanted to remain, to hear what the poet, writer, musician had to say about the decay, and mores.

Dog is God backwards, but I have a feeling Dean knew this when tempting us with his title.
I’ll be ordering another Dean J. Baker book, in paperback, tomorrow. There are still 2 or 3 I don’t own.
You can read my review of “Silence Louder Than A Train” by clicking on the pic of the cover
Dean, what a long revealing journey from “Baker’s Bad Boys” to “The Eschatological Dog”! From dog turd to dog word you have enchanted me.
Dean is a prolific writer, and all of his many books are available on Amazon in EBook and/or Paperback. He even has his own Amazon page.
OR
Buy his works on Create Space where you can find my most recent purchase, “In Riparian Fields”

Christy Birmingham’s new book of poems is one of the best you will ever read.
Through what I see as 8 versions of her self, Christy reveals 8 versions of my self.

Yes, her metaphors are cunning, and her near rhymes, feet & other poetic abilities are alluring,
However, it is her ability to stay focused on the self that make these poems very special & simply personally meaningful.

Read “Versions Of The Self” & be wiser, as you will discover in Future Selves.
BTW, the concept of “Versions” itself, is poetry! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
