Read Time:25 Second
poems from my upcoming book
In this short, thoughtful installment of The JourneyMan’s Journal, Gene Strother previews two pieces from his forthcoming poetry collection. The first—Come and Meet Her in Common Meter—is a witty, self-aware introduction to the book’s rhythm and spirit. The second—Lacerations—is a more solemn meditation on scars, both physical and spiritual, and the lives that leave them behind. The episode is light and lyrical in tone, with an undercurrent of grounded faith and quiet resilience.
