"Birds Nobody Loves" is an illustrated collection of poems about
two of the less popular denizens of the sky. After spending a lot
of time watching vultures and grackles around his home in central
Texas, author James Brush "never ceases to be amazed--and just a
little horrified--by the scorn these two creatures illicit. It's
precisely that derision and disdain for these two species that
attracted me to them as subject matter for a poetry collection."
The grackle poems take a sometimes humorous look at our various
fears of the other (and the things that spark those fears:
ugliness, alienation, disease, fear of change) while the vulture
poems examine themes of mortality and the connections and
interrelationships between the human and natural worlds. Most of
the poems in this collection have been published in various online
and print journals and on James's blog.
