New River Reflections: "...men at the counter, coal dust mascara rimming their eyes, yellowed teeth from the chew, and gnarled and broken bones in their hands and fingers...waiting..."
In this third book of poetry, Miles reflects on the conditions in southern West Virginia and its environment, resulting from dishonest communications, regulatory neglect and the overwhelming power of corporate interests in framing discourse in West Virginia. It is dedicated to the West Virginia workers who are being treated like pawns in the service of the "kings" of coal. Some poems in this work were included in previously published work, and are included in this work to complete a subject.
