Touché (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781940696089)

With a mix of political commentary and lyricism in a range of forms, Touch evokes an adrenaline rush as the reader is swept up into Rod Smith's unique blend of humor.

I am no I I slight

I've taught myself to unwrite
& then wreathed, saturate, blank
the severed glinting worlds rebelieve
or they all access overall not-so, a not-so
lucid, a lucid one, the squirrels that I live there
. alright then, alright mr squirrel there, yep.
