  <default-description>&quot;From the not so lofty perch of middle age, Androla sees in all directions: the blue smoke of days gone by, the gray &amp; golden now, the certain shadow of the future's ass end. He knows the reaper's on the road &amp; closing steady, still a little light remains &amp; not all the fruit has soured. There's time left for small victories &amp; he wins with this book: the strained cadence of a life lived hard, words as natural as spit &amp; poems built of flesh, breath &amp; bone.&quot; -Bart Solarczyk</default-description>

He writes cynically of getting older, with lines about getting high and drinking cross-referenced with lines about dentures and taking medicine. <br/><br/>His writing is spare, yet rich with imagery.
