The Pony Governor by Darren C. Demaree is a series of politically
charged poems that challenge shallow leadership and attack the
abuse of power at the hands of those in charge. While at times
aggressive, and with a penchant for not holding punches, the
collection remains fair, aimed at engagement, redemption, and
restoration from brokenness. Demaree addresses issues relevant to
all readers attempting to find their way in the labyrinth of modern
politics. He maps emotion through the various milieus people find
themselves inhabiting under leadership gone bad. Despite the pain
and struggle the poems often exhibit, they offer hope for a future
free of exploitation, free of underhandedness, free of deception.
These poems whisper and shout and ache and quiver. In the end, they
stand accusatory and fearless.
Our bodies, our individual and collective bodies, and the separate
bodies that together combine to make our systems, ecological,
biological, psychological and technological - these are the bodies
that we refer to, these are the bodies that Darren C. Demaree has
dance for us on the page; nuanced or naked, dissected, desecrated
and decorated; these are the bodies that rise and swell to the
touch of the poet's pen.
