Description: "What a magnificent celebration of existence and self ... I was swept along by audacious and delightful leaps of vision and far-ranging connections. Inevitably, there will be comparisons to Whitman and Sandburg ... but Chicken on Church goes beyond them in its specificity of human detail, and its tremendous range of reference. I marvel at the discipline in language and form which holds together so deceptively free a work. The comic tone protects the poem from grandiosity, but still, there is something grand here."--Publisher's website.
