What people are saying.
“You’re such an articulate voice, for I feel like I’m a transplanted Texan listening to you describe the place in your poetry. I’m really enjoying it and wanted to let you know that you have an appreciative audience.”
“Really love your poetry. Reading this on a flight to Madrid, remembering trips where I searched for arrowheads as a young girl.”
“John Updike wrote some good, and humorous, poems about golf, but in all my poetry reading over the years I’ve never encountered a poem with a driving range in it, and that’s the kind of specificity that I enjoy.”
“How lovely to read your poem about Venice, my favorite place in the world. An enchanting poem has won my heart.”
“[The poem] “Don’t Worry.” ... your first sentence should be on plaques in every home and office.”
“I discovered your poetry yesterday, and its edginess and soulful paths are going to contribute to keeping me on the path to stay alive ... your poems have reminded me of why I need to be here. I write to you from a remote desert wilderness, where I am camping through the winter. Thank you, Jason, for the gift of your poetry.”
“I adore your work. This one, “More Time,” is especially poignant. Thanks for sharing!”
“Very thoughtfully done, sounds like you’re having fun! You’ve got ignorance on the run, with pen in hand, your work is never done!”
“I enjoyed your poem “Rain Over Puntarenas” this morning. Very strong images, lovely bits of rhyming ... I enjoy being a subscriber of yours. I admire your boldness."
“Your poetry reminds me of childhood with my grandmother – very sentimental – you have got “it”!!”
“I just can’t wait for your next poem. I am a Latin major and always appreciated the meter and cadence of the poetry of the works ... Your poetry has its own melodious tone. They are so well-written and so enjoyable to read!”
“Your poems made me feel like I was on top of the mountain, and I could sense the love and the spirituality. It’s hard to explain, but your poems have some kind of realness to them ... I just felt like these writings touched my soul.”
“This poem, “It’s All About Me,” gave me chills. Thank you so much for sharing it!!!”
“ I’ve only read 5 thus far, my favorite “The Metal Silence”. Perhaps because of it’s observation on what seems so black and white, but truly grey like all things living. But your poems on Texas put me right there as well. In places I have been and ones imagined. But still I am there. It’s beautiful, Jason.”
“Man… love this one. “Loops” is a word painting… beautiful. A picture of something doing what it was made to do.”
