Dripping wet, were we first met, defying fate,our destiny delivering us from our life's deepest, captious myriad.
Joined in a picturesque indulgence that
delivers onto us, excruciating feelings
that goes beyond sexuality,and that of a fleshy shell.
What we have is much more beautiful
than that which has ever been written,
that has ever known a sheet of virginal
white, with flawless patterns of black.
Beneath the steel-gray skies, more
stately than any curt little café,
aloft the birds which sing our song,
is where we first made love.
Two beings joined for life with just
a sigh, and a few carved words that
shall forever remain, in this park's
domain and our memories stay true ,
like our love for each other.
Early Works is an exhaustive compilation of the first decade of the poems and stories of Z.B.McClure. Included are family photos, rare personal photos, photos of 1st draft manuscripts of many of his early poems. Also some biography and memoir materia
Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
