Book Description

September 6, 2007
In his latest collection of poetry, Karl Koweski puts the fun back into disillusionment and adds charm to dissolution. Able to laugh at himself as he laughs at others, Diminishing Returns is layered with humor and Koweski s observations of a world quickly losing cohesion--and an appreciation for baseball s greatest .236 career hitter.

5.0 out of 5 stars Over the line, September 20, 2007
By 
J. D. Finch (Kerouac Country, New England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Diminishing Returns (Pamphlet)
After I read Karl I thought of these lines from Apocalypse Now:

There's something happening out there, man.
You know something, man, I know something that you don't
know. That's right, jack. The man is clear in his mind, but his
soul is mad . Oh yeah. He's dying, I think. He hates all
this, he hates it! But ... the man's ... uh ... he reads poetry out
loud, alright? ... And a voice! A voice. .......

The man's enlarged my mind. He's a poet-warrior in the classic
sense. I mean sometimes he'll, uh, well, you'll say hello to
him, right? And he'll just walk right by you, and he won't even
notice you. And suddenly he'll grab you, and he'll throw you in
a corner, and he'll say do you know that if is the middle
word in life?

Koweski's poems show you how the world can be turned upside down, and how you can survive that. He travels beyond the boundaries, geographic and poetic. If you don't travel with him through these poems, it's your loss.
Buy the book -- it's full of truth, revelation and an off-center love of life. What more could you want?
