Summary
Blue Toes and a Dog is a collection of poems in which the author expresses all the wonder and beauty that poetry is able to convey. Poetry is seen as a source of amazement, as a tool and lens through which to see and perceive the world around us. In this collection the reader will find numerous styles, based on discovery, not only of the wonderful creativity poetry allows them to experiment with, but also the numerous avenues language allows them to access the universe. The author believes poetry is meant to constantly change the view of whatever we see, in multiple ways, one time beautiful, another time vicious, another time perplexing, another time with grace and love. The author explores different themes, ranging from love to simple, everyday life scenarios, filtered through his watchful and ever-active eye. Some poems were free flowing, some were a struggle. But isn’t that what poetry and life are all about?Rudy Baron, originally from Detroit and former English Instructor at Long Island University, Brooklyn, co-founded Downtown Brooklyn in 1992 with fellow authors Barbara Henning and Wayne Berninger. He was editor of the publication for seven years, and his literary contributions have been published in numerous journals, establishing his reputation in the field.
