5.0 out of 5 stars Phillip Mahoney demonstrates the art of poetry, January 11, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Catching Bodies (Paperback)
With the blast of a 12 guague point blank. His work comes straight off the street, undiluted by romanticism or the glorification of violence. Its an attempt to convey the life of a beat coop without cliche or comedy. Mahoneys poetry is a self defense reaction against the unbearable senslessness of suffering. He cannot save souls, he can only catch the bodies
