Stroke: Poems
Political outrage rustles the high grasses of these ingenious lyrics, which often employ the ecologies of both the Florida panhandle and the Aegean coast to slyly portray humanity's foibles. Formally inventive (included is a series of "monosonnets"), Wade's is a boisterous poetry, one that takes pleasure in itself even during its conniptions of incredulity at the behavior of people in power (and in particular one dubiously elected president).

Wade's poems demonstrate a keen and expert hand at work with the English language
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
An accomplished and prolific poet, Sidney Wade is back once more with her fifth collection of poetry titled "Stroke". Brilliant and cunning political and social commentaries, Wade's poems demonstrate a keen and expert hand at work with the English language, combining emotions for a delicious smorgasbord of excellent writing. Highly recommended for community libraries everywhere and for all poetry lovers. Stroke of Genius: windfall/ display/ of/ art// playing/ a/ signal/ part// flaying/ the/ heart/ of/ indignant/ enigma.
