Pulse is a miscellany of 29 poems, eclectic in subject matter and not overly constrained by reality's parameters. Expressed quite simply and intelligibly, the poems are largely narratives focussed on forms of a life force, the pulse that drives the body of the human world. That pulse is measured in a variety of circumstances. Some relate to a reality that we generally acknowledge and others are more surreal. Polemic is largely avoided. Points of view and nuances are drawn by the author without strong insistence on the readers' commitment to any specific ideas or concepts. Rather, readers are invited to mull the intellectual and emotional content and be entertained by its novelty.
