Whistling Past The Tavern

Jeff Wolverton and Bob Jaeger have teamed up to publish a book of their poetry, each page including a poem by one of them and on the facing page, a poem by the other. Often times the two poems dance together in rhythm. . . here's an example:

Bad Day for Fishing

Today my thoughts and emotions
are all tangled up like fishing lines–
I cannot produce one single line
to cast out and catch You
in the vast sea of this moment
and reel You in.
