Some people write about perfect moments. Dennis Montano writes about the moments after.
The empty chair at the end of the bar. The song that brings back someone you lost. The conversation you still replay years later. The nights when the world feels too loud-and the mornings when you wonder how you made it through.
In The War Is Long, Montano walks through the streets of ordinary life, exploring heartbreak, friendship, regret, loneliness, aging, and the quiet battles nobody else sees. Written with honesty, humor, vulnerability, and a little grit, these poems uncover the beauty hidden inside life's imperfect moments.
This is a collection for anyone who has looked back at the life they have lived, remembered the people they have lost, and continued searching for something worth holding on to.
