Less is more--a commonly repeated proverb. In "Wee Hour Martyrdom", poet and award winning author Jason Tandom aims to follow that wisdom with his vivid, and deftly crafted poetry. Tackling the simple emotions and challenges of human behavior, Tandom touches on it all. "Wee Hour Martyrdom" would make a fine addition to any poetry fan's collection and community library collections as well. December: Red Wine//and the mouse holed in the wall/Behind my head//Is scratching to the spatter/Of Art Blakey's snare drum//in "Dig This."
