Beyond the Wounded Horizon J Lester Allen

For more than a decade, poets J Lester Allen and James H Duncan have inspired and supported each other from afar, occasionally meeting on the road for a beer and a story before disappearing across another wounded horizon. The poems here are mile markers crossing that ever-changing landscape, passing through cities and small towns where there's a bar, there's music, jazz and smoke and laughter, neon splashed across a midnight highway, or perhaps there's a quiet bed, someone to love, working days of solitude and somnolence, each with stories that remain long after the moments pass, like stars above an ancient highway awaiting the next great adventure.
