And What About The Bells?

I cannot believe that after so many years of carrying around not only the poetry Itself, but the burden of promise to my brother Rozz to see it published, that this book will finally be made widely available. I wish you were here with me to see your beautiful poetry shared with the world. It was a long, long labor of love, my brother.
