Elder Skelter

A volume of poetry and prose affirming the certitude of aging. In these pages are both the carefree stance of the long-lived and the serious business of broken bones. Seale's poems spell out the patronizing of seasoned flesh, the nobility of canes, the zen of jigsaw puzzles. Essay-ettes comment on writing utensils, deciduous leaves, chronometry, and self-talk. Humor and soulfulness extend to the reader, as well as the inevitability of time and thus the urgency for truthfulness and pleasure.
