Ambidextrous
A Book of Poems
by RC Allen
An esteemed literary critic takes on wings in his first book of poetry. Sample from the text:
Writing free verse,
Robert Frost famously observed,
"is like playing tennis
with the net down."
Then who was his opponent? He left that up in the air,
above their net.
From Make a Lemonade
Right after WWII
she got married/& settle down to
’Hi, honey, I’m home!’
Eventually
two events took place: Empty Nest,
& Fem Lib.
In those days
a Hausfrau had two choices:
hit the road,
or think positive.
To be or not to be.
These days
she sits at ease
in the backyard
& sips her mellow lemonade.
