Tactile Values: Poems (New Issues Poetry & Prose) - Softcover

"The propensity for play in Mark Scott's poems, the musicality, the sensuality and willingness to show love, make Tactile Values an engaging first collection. The poems' diverse and varied styles might even make it a good book for beginning readers of poetry to pick up. Start with the short ones; they're simpler, more emotional and direct. Then move on to the long, complicated ones, which are as much a pleasure to the ear as to the mind."--James Lough "The Denver Post" (1/21/2001 12:00:00 AM)

In this volume of poetry, Mark Scott writes of human feelings and human touch in poems about the deaths of two brothers and in poems of love and friendship.
