Craig Podmore

Craig Podmore's poetry not only leaves the reader shaken but often shaking as well. This is poetry which is raw, brutally honest and scathing in its examination of the darker sides of human consciousness and desire. Biting and often bleak, Podmore's poetry shows no mercy in its effective dissection of politics and religion. I am a Gun is a remarkable collection which is full-voiced, hard-hitting and intelligent. - Dale Winslow

  *******************

  I am a Gun

  I am no Warsaw hooker

  With my milk teeth

  Under my pillow.

  I am no atom bomb

  Made in America

  With far right Christian

  Smiles.

  I am a gun,

  Fully loaded for a war that

  Means something.

  To me.
