In "Suicide, Love, and other Ruminations," the reader starts out in a New York City subway, then travels through a variety of imagistic poems meant to entertain, and provoke thought. Revelations abound while moving from location to location. Humor and Romanticism is sewn into the journey, which includes a trip to Italy. There, the senses are titillated, and temptation stirs the heart. Jazz, and Mambo dancing sets a tone indicative of a N.Y. vibe. The Manhattan experience is juxtaposed with, "Dead cotton fields, Johnny Reb's grave, and another Southern Winter." "Suicide, Love, and other Ruminations" may begin with an unpleasant topic but quickly turns to the joys and challenges of living.
