Miles of Hallelujah

Rob "Ratpack Slim” Sturma's first full-length collection of poetry is a journey through the mind of one of the last hopeless romantics; it is cradled in the language of pop music and fantasy, always rounding the bend back to the poet's sense of longing. The language dances between the conceit of the literary and the how-ya-doin' talk of the spoken word, telling sudden stories of pet dinosaurs, unicorns, and men made of razors, dipping into nostalgia with both humor and pathos. These are poems that could scream if they wanted to, but prefer to whisper. With a foreword by multi-time National Poetry Slam champion "Mighty” Mike McGee, this collection is made for people who didn't think they liked poetry and for modern poetry enthusiasts alike.
