Poet Loiterer. E-book. Formato EPUB. Poet Loiterer is D.L. Lang&#39;s fifth poetry book. This 180 page collection features nature poems, protest poems, spiritual poems, and story poems.<br /><br />&quot;Lang&#39;s themes include wanderlust, love for nature (and especially hiking in the California hills), religious devotion, paying the bills versus living the artist&#39;s life, and transforming from a passive pacifist to an activist. &quot;You gave me lungs, / so that I might breathe peace&quot; expresses forthright praise to God in &quot;What You Created,&quot; and elsewhere, verse expresses delight in Jewish practice: &quot;There&#39;s music and Torah both running through my soul,&quot; she observes--a quirky combination that brings to mind a Jewish Janis Joplin. In the satirical &quot;Doves in Season,&quot; the traditional peace symbol is being hunted. &quot;Fear not the rocking boat,&quot; another poem advises, encouraging readers to question racism, capitalism, and America&#39;s reliance on weapons. There&#39;s &quot;More than one way to be an American,&quot; the poem &quot;Headline Antidote&quot; insists; indeed, this collection imagines a peaceful, joyful future America.&quot; -- Kirkus Reviews
