The Cavalry is on its way and the Horses have been Replaced with Tanks: Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595389247)

As always and forever, normal daily everyday life speaks and expresses our emotions and reactions to the mistakes, good fortunes, bad luck, tragedy and the humorous events we see all around us. John Burkhimer has taken some of the personal instances and events in his life and compiled them into a collection of humorous, yet somewhat cynical poems. Written for a mature audience, The Cavalry is on its way and the Horses have been replaced with Tanks is a collection of brief and to the point, non-analytical poems regarding his interpretations and observations on history, relationships, love, working at a newspaper, restoring automobiles as a hobby, and growing up in Bucks County, Pa. On a deeper level however, his poems brush along the fine line of faith, luck, death and depression, which incorporates itself into the central backbone of his interpretations and observations in this collection of work. Even then, these topics are portrayed with a humorous, yet cynical twist in its simplest form of basic poetry.
