Dead Burying the Dead Under a Quaking Aspen

David Cranmer's luminous collection of poetry extracts profound insight from an intimate life that's been haunted by death and depression but continually searches for the reason to believe.Death comes in many shades: a mother's death will not separate her from her children, a 9 to fiver's spirit-sucking job, or a 'canceled" John Wayne are all observed through this singular voice. "Each day breaks with such hope," Cranmer admits, and his poems are raw and concise, searching for human revelations we all share.
