Description
Seeing-In A Small-Town takes us on a journey through small-town America. The poetry chapbook is a collection of vignettes, each based on a different person or group of people that our visiting explorer encounters during their travels. Each vignette is a story the explorer imagines based on the person's appearance, behavior, and interactions with others. Through these stories, the reader is given a glimpse into the lives of small-town Americans and the daily routines that make up their lives. The book explores judgment, assumptions, and the importance of seeing beyond the surface. The poems remind us that every person has a story and that we should be slow to judge and quick to listen. We never know what burdens someone carries or what joys they celebrate. Everyone is more than just their appearance; we should take the time to get to know them before forming opinions.
