Poet With a Satirical Soul

Poet With a Satirical Soul

Maureen Landress

Some scholars, and self styled intellectuals; say poetry has become a dying art, too archaic for this modern world. Then along comes an author like this one, and you know that just can't be true.

Love Scrambled Well, A Collection of Poetry

By Robin McClary

Mix together a wry wit, a touch of sarcasm, and an equal measure of brilliant word play, and you have the ingredients for this collection of distinctive poems.

McClary's life has been one of diversity, and the lessons he's learned along the way are clearly reflected in his writing. From his thoughts about flying with Lady Death as a companion, to his memories of loves found and lost, he takes you on a tumultuous ride through life.

It is his love for life, women in general, and that occasional friend loneliness, that make his poems speak with such eloquence.

The words flow with such an easy grace, like barroom banter between good friends, and a few strangers. They are intimate and seductive. They are poignant and sad. They are revealing and bold. But above all, they are truly unforgettable.

This is a book meant to nourish the soul, so open it, and feast.
