Last Call

"Poetry again prevails--the subject this time, coping with time and our mortality. Elsasser has accomplished some beautifully written and memorable work here, weaving words about the waxing of our years and waning of our bodies, and where it leaves us.--Evie Ivy, author of THE FIRST WOMAN WHO DANCED, and editor of DINNER WITH THE MUSE: THE ANTHOLOGY OF THE GREEN PAVILION EVENT. "David Elsasser's a dangerous poet. His art is patient observation of what happens when time passes and we are not looking. He nails it 'past where rails meet.' What images! Watch your back, these rites of passage are not for children.--George Spencer, Co-host of the Phoenix Reading Series.
