Sentry the Horizon

About the Book

In this author's first book of verse, Bruce Merritt brings years of unique poetic experience to bear on the tedium of empty, overnight hours employed as a Security guard, to "fashion the minutes, transcribed in a log book, which fortunately conformed to the ordinary protocols for my assigned post. Due to the Vicissitudes of the late hours, and what I presume to be the whims of the creative temperament, this log-book began to brim with records, observations and entries derived from a waking dream, so to speak. These poems exist on an alternate schedule, the concepts and activities of night and day are shuffled, reversed, at least out of synch, with the so-called normal routine of daily life".
