Nothing Itself: Poems

By Janis Levine

"Truth telling, poem making, Gary Galsworth tells his life's hard-won truths with candour and clarity. Ex-marine, master plumber, life-time Zen Buddhist practitioner, he gives us in this newest collection a compelling mix of fine-tuned lyrics and intimate prose poems." Kathryn Kimball, poet and many-titled author
Nothing itself is Galsworth's third book of poems in five chapters: 1) A Hundred Years In The Basement; 2) Early On; 3) Ordinary Death; 4) The Station; and 5) The Moon Found Its Way.
Hanne Tierney, performance artist, comments on the 86 poems in this volume this way: "It is as if Gary has given himself a long apprenticeship in intimacy with words. And it's paid off. He manages to quietly point out the terrible frailty of people with a light touch--and it always sinks in."
