Why poems? Early in my recovery, I couldn't focus on anything longer. It took me many months before I could write my first new word, and not just because the stroke had left me, for a time, without the memory of the logic of keys on a keyboard and without the use of my right hand to type. I simply didn't want to write. Poems fit the overwhelming breadth of my experiences-at times ironic, withering, fantastical, whimsical, narrative, lyrical, funny, deterministic, childlike, and so much of that in pieces that don't fit together. These poems are accessible, without pandering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Babcock Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45787436089391,"sku":"9798992209143","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/2855\/6847\/files\/imageloader_1931dd54-7d9c-4b55-8d6b-bf8c443243cf.jpg?v=1786148422","url":"https:\/\/tssbooks.com\/products\/the-book-of-stroke","provider":"tssbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
