Generalities Of The Great Plains

The poems comprising this book, and the stories they tell came to me at various times throughout my late 30's and early 40's. I don't know why. I confess, though, that I never discouraged them. When the poem repeated itself long enough in my head it became indelible there and I typed the poem on my portable Royal typewriter. I doubt they were heaven sent, and even if they were I may have unwittingly changed them as I converted Almighty Speak to my Prairie English. As a flat-lander I have a tendency to generalize most of what I see and what I hear so these poems are, at best, a "generality" of what came to me a half of my life ago. I hope you like them, but they come with no guarantee.
