Ranging the gamut from love lyrics to a "murder whodunit"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Bloody Jack is a collection of free-verse poetry by Canadian poet Dennis Cooley and is loosely based upon the life of John Krafchenko, a notorious Manitoban outlaw. Ranging the gamut from love lyrics, to a "murder whodunit", to philosophical conundrums, to the humdrum daily life, the unusual spacing of lines adds a distinctive flavor to the evocative and captivating verses. "in spring sky is sprung / opens like a mousetrap / there is a wind so grey and so hard it is aluminum / so cold if you stand too close it explodes in small bottles"
