Simultaneous Revolutions offers a meeting place for individual expression in this plague year where, forced to look within and stay afar, people can do both with these companion poems. With poems about Bob Dylan, contemporary singer Grimes, the Clash, Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries, Allen Ginsberg, and also featuring voices from warehouse rave to the ignored alley, from the blurry highway to a couple's river-walk to a calm man's tilling, these poems offer a provocative panorama of our both ancient and neon times.Headed down the wounded highwaylike a nurse on the same road,don't know what the banners say today,but sense the ill from the good.-from "Soulphone Ringing"Who hasn't traveled the revolutions of living?
