Collaboratively compiled and edited by C.B. Follett and Susan Terris, Runes: A Review Of Poetry is an eclectic collection of original free-verse by a very wide assortment of quiet talented poets. From reverence for the seasons, to practical difficulties of daily life, to solemn homages to the dead, Runes presents a series of vivid, inspirational, and memorable readings. Jesus in America: He stands on the corner/of Market Street/with hands agape at his sides./Each Tear from his eye reflects/the city's starvation./He opens his doors, the robes/of his church,/to reveal the neon heart/blinking through its thorns;/he looks up the huge golden arcs/of fast food reaching for heaven/from across the street./He is the bun of God, the cola of deliverance.
