My Blue Sweetie by Neal Zirn

Balancing his esoteric knowledge and real-life experience, Neal Zirn fashions stories and poems that inform and surprise, explore and amuse. His work is like a geometric twist on German Expressionism, seeking lasting change for society and humanity. It’s vivid, filled with powerful images; and it moves, leaving the reader almost out of breath. So, fill your lungs, and read on.

You are drawn into Neal Zirn’s poetry with the first line. His style is clean and accessible and the stories unfold. The poems are infused with the big city (the Bronx). The stories seem simple, but the emotions around the stories are more complex. And sometimes at the end there is a twist- things are not what they seem.

–Mike Hampton– Artist/Painter
