Risk Assessment

By David C. Kopaska-Merkel

In Risk Assessment, David C. Kopaska-Merkel, a master at speculative senryu and haiku, illuminates the dangers and risks inherent in life through horrific, whimsical, and fantastic beams of light. His tight, terse language can be enjoyed popcorn-like by the handful or earnestly like an elegantly presented gourmet meal. Humorous, ardent, and keen, these tiny poems will produce smiles and insight.

For readers who like their poetry strange, brief, and brilliant, Risk Assessment is a darkly delightful dive into the unknown. Once you start reading them, you will find these poems are well worth the risk.
