Red Camaro


Between the world that created these poems and the one in which they still live, Red Camaro shuttles us through lifetimes of touching moments as well as challenging times when the beauty within our history must remain a dream. The result-a muscle vehicle of memory, the kind of car in which you come to realize that over a distance no one can ever map out in advance, love itself is the only reliable driver.
“Hang on because, as we know, ‘all we ever wanted was the ride.'”

“In poems steeped in the red clay of place, life is as fragile as a dogwood ‘petal’s dying tips’ and as resilient as ‘the daylight coming.'”
-Heidi Seaborn, author of Marilyn: Essays & Poems
