Hart D. Fisher is an amazing man. Hard to contemplate that at one time, he was happy. I find myself strangely drawn to his dark, melodic verse. Pity we can't all feel the torment that rips through his words like so many daggers of ice. I desperately need to read the first book; any endeavor by Fisher will recieve warm praise from me. I can't sleep after reading his work; I stay awake, waiting for the demons of poetry to claw at my throat and suck my life's breath.
Another Masterpiece of Pain

I have read both of Hart D. Fisher's poetry books. They both kick you in the gut and spit on you. Packed full of imagery that stays with you for days. Otherwise, good stuff, buy it!
poetry, not pre-chewed
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
poetry is a tough medium to work with, the most subjective perhaps of all the arts. fisher's poetry does not transcend that but rather shouts and writhes from it's own corner of a sad bleak world. people that have never seen the dark side of the zero may not relate but if you read poetry hoping to understand, if you like words chisled like an expensive sculpture stolen from a hidden museum, then this book will get in your bones and stay there.
