Chaperons of a Lost Poet

Chaperons of a Lost Poet Chaperons of a Lost Poet by John Vick


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Vick's first collection is a bold and finely crafted portrait. The work is actually one long poem, but is best savored in small portions. This is a complex and textured poem, rich in imagery and language. Vick explores the landscape of the self with rare honesty and precision. Bravo!
