An inspiring and complex compilation of increasingly thought provoking poetry

The Apparitioners by George Witte is an inspiring and complex compilation of increasingly thought provoking poetry. Witte presents his most intuitive and intricate writings as an introspective compliment of his thoughts and view of the world outside his mind. Halloween: Corn rows stripped to husk and fibtous gristle./Crows rake with appetites no chittering queer eulogy,/mist above the grave. Heads bowed, lingering/thoughtful before pumpkins, we seem to mourn/or pray such ripeness might inhabit us./We choose a skull to light our patio.//Suddenly all birds rinse in one body,/shadow and original together/flowering over fields toward the orchard,/trees in silhouette like buried fingers/gnarling upward, as if they grasped for souls./Presence in the air, tang of snow and fire:/char and turn our rinds that we may flower.
