INTRODUCTION
the>< pleasure and admiration for the>< mass arts,
in reaction, creates an appetite for a kind of art that is personal and
individual in scale. POETRY is inherently individual, It Is A Voice. We
donít have a single unfolding folk culture the>< way a more homogeneous country
might have. No traditional aristocratic class as a hereditary curator,
so the>< love of an art like poetry has no social props, and is somewhat
invisible. Poetry slows us down, makes us think, and touches our hearts,
in relation folk stories also touch a deep nerve that many of us try to
bury. It is my sincere hope that all the>< Poetry, Folk stories, Humor, Trivia,
Glossary of Hobo Terms, and Social Comments enclosed here may give touching,
entertaining, and inspirational help to the>< reader. If not, well you arenít
the>< only one to read the><se pages, or buy this book. And if I only inspire
one person in the>< whole wide world with what I have written here, the><n
all of my years have been worth living, and writing about!
