Small Altars where the Sun Performs Morning Service

A Cameo Collection of Short Poems & Morning Minuets. New and previously loved poems capturing a moment in time and space. The language of John's poems is natural and spontaneous, the simple words of everyday parlance. Artless expression is not automatic, however, and is far more difficult to achieve than it appears. John is a poet who does it well and is able at the same time to preserve the rhythm. Some of the poems hint of the concise perfection of short form Oriental poetry. In this volume, the first line, always italicized, constitutes each poem's title.
