Running For Daybreak showcases the superbly crafted poetry of Richard Alan Bunch who three times has been nominated for a Pushcart Prize, and whose work has appeared in a number of prestigious poetry and literature publications. Running For Daybreak is a perfect introduction to Richard's own very special approach to lyrical verse, word smithed imagry, and emtional imagination. Milton's Muse: I have lost my socks to Milton's muse/And found my tissues in nets of hills/Where sunsets dance in flaming shoes/And burning oak in an ageless well.//I have lost my pants to Milton's muse/And thunder my child in drowsy blood/Where twilight lovers snake in the blues/And mellow within the pulse of drums.//I have lost my ties to Milton's muse/Who rankles time with an inch of leaves/And offers homage to veins of mood/And yanks yogis from the bartered earth.
