Life, Weather Jasen Sousa. ( J-Rock Publishing. 45 Francesca Ave. Somerville, Ma. 02144)

Obviously, alot of work and dedication was invested in putting out this collection of poetry. Jasen Sousa and K.Katehis ( both Somerville residents), have produced a book of poetry and accompanying illustrations, that explore the trials and tribulations of young people in their teens and twenties. I think the poems here can be appreciated by their peers, as they speak their lingo, and deal with things that are germane to being young and conflicted in modern society. This poetry project people by a band of Somerville friends should be encouraged and supported.
