The Years We Never Saw Coming

"Captivating-an impressive journey in poems, inviting us to detach from the ordinary and see our world in the shoes of a sensitive, strong poet. Entertaining, intriguing, and utterly compelling, this woven tapestry of days entwins mutual experiences we all share, moments of love, the natural world, grief, and music. In the titular poem, 'The Year We Never Saw Coming, ' the poetic tone is rightfully threating "...a stalker stealing breath...a killer floating on air...what can be done with such viral fury which respects neither wisdom nor age...its moisture one love's poisonous kiss." From the first page Galasso sustains our attention with his acute observations. This book is a triumph both narrative and lyrical. A rare find." -Seretta Martin, Managing Editor of San Diego Poetry Annual, award-winning poet, artist, and author of Foreign Dust Familiar Rain and the forthcoming Holographic Reality.
