Something Wonderful

ebook
Paul Jones salutes the world with Something Wonderful.This big book sings lyrical commentaries in sometimes lulls, courting parody; yet every poem retains a sensibility of good humor.Syllables bloop and loop and make light where a bird might plop or a snake might leave an empty nest.Every image shines, turning dross to sheen, as tinctures of evil sway unknown Truths among Wonder’s residue.Jones brings on the cicada’s song, turns the radio off to hear tunes in his head, offers bright sounds in strains stars shine like skulls of ghosts.Humor?An ode to Krispy Kreme Donuts, plus a hymn to okra.Something Wonderful is just that!—Shelby Stephenson, poet laureate, North Carolina, 2015-18.His current books are More and Shelby’s Lady:The Hog Poems.
