Synopsis "Pardon My Poetry"
This is Jim Slaughter's second published volume of collected poems. Within this spectrum you will find rhymed verse, free verse, ballads, story poems, haiku, senryu, triolet, and sonnets. They are generously laced with the author's unique sense of humor, seriousness, nostalgia, reflection, exaggeration, fabrication, inspiration, and imagination. The author is a retired teacher and actor who lives in Springfield, Missouri. Although he is, and has always been a confirmed bachelor, and has never married nor sired any children, he very much considers all of his writings to be his progeny. And like any good father, he is quite proud of all of his offspring.
