His writing and way with words blows me away. Real, poignant, insistent on hope, and insistent on seeing and portraying the humanity of people.

If I had to pick a few favorites:
-When maze and Frankie Beverly come on in my home
-Ode to the end-of-year 6th grade picnic
-Beyond this place
-No more elegies today

This was Brilliant ! My favourite was 'Playground Elegy'... & if I had to convince someone to read this book, this is the poem I'd ask them to read.
