Jurisprudence: Poems Patrick T. Meighan

"These poems give us the criminals, molesters, addicts, judges, bailiffs, and lawyers of our court system the newspapers cannot or will not see. This is how serious news becomes tragedy &/or comedy in the deft hands of a talented writer."  Michael Odom, author of ?Strutting, Attracting, Snapping? ?In lesser hands, Patrick Meighan's singular voice might be rife with sentimentality; or worse, advice. Instead, Meighan's poems immerse the reader in a uniquely rich and powerful language. The poet invites his readers to join him in a world rarely experienced ? Jurisprudence is composed of the vividly etched faces of those caught within a system of mazes. As Jurisprudence unfolds, timely and timeless poems are fully realized by a truly fine poet." -- Fran Lemoine, author of "The Moon Makes No Difference to Me."
