A young girl practicing flute on the end of a pier, furniture repair, an ancient shark tooth, the deaths of friends--these are some of Makuck's subjects. His short lyrics and long narratives vary from comic to elegiac, often finding their locus in the landscapes of coastal North Carolina.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeter Makuck \u003c\/b\u003eis a distinguished professor of arts and sciences at East Carolina University and edits \u003ci\u003eTar River Poetry\u003c\/i\u003e.
