A carefully selected collection of poems by Paul Kareem Tayyar, told from the perspective of a mystical, perhaps godlike homeless veteran.Includes the following poems: Unfaithful Your patience is a lie that you sustain An ethos forged from the landscape of a second face All the days that you are certain will be yours Your brothers carry with them when they leave The Magician You want so badly to tell how it's done That you tell it to yourself each night before sleep, Narrating a film that no one will see, The sound of the rain like the beating of wings, The applause you receive for keeping the secret.
