Either a bad joke or the first poetry collection from Daniel R. Jones. In equal parts levity and contemplation, Jones delivers a uniquely accessible poetic voice. Whether he's exploring spirituality, the far-reaches of speculative fiction, or the tedium of life in a fly-over state, each piece is poignant and filled with a sense of quiet wonder. The poems oscillate between lighthearted quipping (as seen in \"To Caligula, from His Horse\" and \"Odin and I Race for the Runes\"), wide-eyed introspection (as seen in \"Veering\" and \"The Brunt of the Curse\"), and spiritual rumination (as seen in \"The Sheen in Dirty Things\" and \"Beyond the Balustrade\"). Whatever the subject-matter or style of the poem, these pieces are sure to satisfy, inviting the reader into transcendence--whether that be through laughter, contemplation of God, or self-reflection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Daniel R.
