everything we wanted, except for that one tree."" Those lines are

and in the 21st century; a summer blockbuster superhero psalm
(""Sheol my arch-nemesis/sent his minions after me/They trapped me
in a death net/and hit me with a hydro-blast""); poems which travel
from the Apostles' Creed to unexpected destinations (""They say I'm
lucky/to be here in the Creed,"" says Pontius Pilate); and more.
Humorous, thoughtful and poignant poems in rhyme or free verse.
