Paths to God - John Bennett
A Zen monk
on a
six-month
silent retreat
with a
smuggled-in
cell phone
& a
stock portfolio.
A little something from John Bennett, who won't back down, who tells it like it is, and who has a low tolerance for BS. Check out his work here at Hcolom/Vagapound Press and drop him a line @ dasleben@fairpoint.net. I love his tribute to another small press icon, Kell Robertson, which you can find at the always in your face outlaw poetry network.
John Bennett, who spends a good deal of his time doing what he notes of Kell: bringing Moloch to its knees.
