Counterpoint, the first full collection of poems by David Alpaugh,
was selected out of over 800 manuscripts for the seventh annual
Nicholas Roerich Poetry Prize by Story Line Press in 1994. The
subjects of the book’s contemporary, witty, bizarre, and often
moving poems range from POWs and salespeople to art and the dead.
Alpaugh’s works speak to one another—child to adult, animal to
human, ad man to poet, New Jersey to California, and past to
present. He writes with affection and care for each of these points
of unlikely connection. Harold Witt called Alpaugh “a unique
voice to hear now and to listen for in the future.” More than
twenty-five years after Counterpoint’s initial publication, these
words ring more true than ever.
