Publisher's Synopsis
I was counted among the homeless for about a year in Austin, Texas, so there are a number of memoirs of those days in some of the poems within the book. I didn't want to name it something ordinary. I wanted to be honest with the reader so that they wouldn't bring home a book that they might not enjoy. I want the reader to know about and be prepared for sections about the homeless life. The rest of the poems are simply about the regular joys and sorrows of this life.
