Discontentment and desire, death and new beginnings weave together in this collection of poems. Yokel gives voice to an eclectic menagerie of characters, from a college co-ed getting her first tattoo in Virgin, to an increasingly dissatisfied Helen of Troy in Helen I-V, to a war veteran struggling with Alzheimer's in Rag Doll. In language at times gentle, at times vicious, these poems tell stories of first love, self-acceptance, and the fallibility of perception and memory. As Yokel says in Green, Colors might be just a trick of the light, but words, and the images and memories they evoke, are what distinguish us as human.
