Love Surrounds You Like a Posse in Bulletproof Vests
By Howie Good

A blurb review by Zach Fishel

 

Publishing Genius, March 2010

Howie Good’s Love Surrounds You Like a Posse in Bulletproof Vests is an eclectic chapbook filled with some of the neatest and well-oriented thematic statements in a sparse number of pages. It is dark, like the back side of your pillow, and has a touch of emotions so easily missed in the wildness of life. Good highlights these subtleties and the piece "Window Light" perfectly illustrates the thoughtfulness found scattered in Good’s book.

If love is a posse, you will need back-up after digesting these poems and soaking in the dark, subtle truths Howie Good exposes in his latest chapbook.
