Customer Reviews

great poetry

The dead Get by With Everything by Bill Holm, is a marvelous collection of poetry about anything and everything. Bill uses his emotion to capture the reader hoping the he/she can fell the pain, sadness, and happines with him. When I read the Poem "noises" it sucked me in. this book is worth reading just for that poem. "The Dead Get by with Everything" is a must for all poets. It might open your eyes a little.

Rich and wise

Holm is breathtaking in his depth and clarity. He has a wry sense of humor and a faultless perception of the world that often hits a bit too close to the mark. His control of language is remarkable. "Sin in Utah" should be required reading for anyone who lives in the western states, "Genealogy" is probably the best poem ever on the subject, and title poem is, of course, stunning.

wonderful, moving!

It dug to the depth of my soul. It touched me in ways that I never thought could be found. It ravaged my soul. Made my world brighter. I have fallen in love with the man who wrote this moving piece. I must find him and make hot and passionate love to him and find his inner soul.
