Singer, fruit picker, behind his father, walking music thru desert sunrise. Through images and color, the spiritual and the philosophical, the poetry of Joe Montano III connects the reader to the natural world and to his own cultural past. His words strive to surpass the average daily dialogue and bring light to the breadth of human fallacy - the scope of which can compel a compassionate soul to speak with the conviction of punk and DIY principles and through the filter of profound abstraction. "There oughta-be-a burn down the town anthem stuttered by the tongues of youth, those failures waiting for sunrise so to daydream." Through a universal lens, the poet seeks to create art that not only endures, but moves and travels with the reader. A personal truth, Joe Montano's words reflect the reality of humanity in surrealistic detail. To identify with these poems is to walk a brambled path - conceding ego, confessing fault - and also illumed by the thought of the inherent golden core to which we can all aspire. "The sun has called him a murderer, and punishes his skin and eyes...taking his god away while shading the poet, the dandy rebel, and the lovers like naked gypsies bathing in the light.""
