New York Revery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9788119228973)

David Francis is a modern day troubadour in search of himself and his muse amid the grit and hope of the Big Apple and the world. The troubadour takes you on his trek and his poetic license takes note. He's daydreaming and not daydreaming, sees a grand building floating in his head, a single tip in a jar, a restaurant and hotel no longer there, assorted people and their assorted destinations, enlivened ghosts who haunt the city, wayward children who never did grow up, and artists as animals who perform for a living. A journey to experience or relate to, a journey worth taking.

Patricia Carragon, author of Angel Fire (Alien Buddha Press) and Meowku (Poets Wear Prada)

*******

There are "poets" who write "poetry" and then there are artists who have an innate yearning to communicate the inarticulate. Francis communicates. In a voice that summons ghosts.

Kevin Orton, singer-songwriter of Gothic Americana band, The Maledictions
