Wreckage with a Beating Heart
Brave and clear, 250 new poems from the inestimable Red Hawk. He sees the human condition with open eyes, the insight of experience, and ruthless honesty. Original cover art by Gary Simmons. Noisy Little Men/ Where i work there is a noisy little man who talks too much and often speaks badly of others, hurtfully and without human feeling in the name of truth. Those who hurt and hide behind the truth are a dangerous bunch. i have done it myself and know the kind of sorrow which compels it so i try to take it like a gentleman, kindly and without harsh judgement which is not easy for a noisy little man like myself. i fear the world is full of men like me who talk all the time and say very little, while those who say little and try to say it very well are rare indeed. Hush, you noisy little man before you anger the God whose breath you squander. You do not want to anger that One; God is no gentleman.
