Averse Again Now and Then is a literary compilation of satire, light verse, and humor in classical forms of prose and poetry. A student of literature would find submissions to include the limerick, ode, dramatic monologue, sonnet, haiku, ballad, villanelle, and the poet's favored forms, free verse and metered rhyme. This is the companion volume to At First Averse and Then Another. There are artistic submissions interspersed throughout, also the creations of the author. Five chapters are devoted to the curious idiosyncrasies of the fifty states of the United States, portraying each within their historical context. The wit and humor within this volume are intended to entertain the reader--a goal the author intimates as most needed in a digitally saturated, politically divided, and complex world that sometimes loses its way.
