Excerpt
Leonard Said
Leonard said,

like a child
walled up
from pain.
But alas Janis
you must leave,
again
and
again
and
again.

James Murphy writes in a fresh, edgy voice, engaging the reader with this superb collection of poems in his first book, Beyond The Call of Beauty.
This thoughtful collection of verse encompasses a broad spectrum of topics
