Travel poems by Aaron Simon.
Cover image by Tom Burckhardt. Edition of 200 copies, laser-printed, perfect-bound. April, 2018. 1st printing. 85 pp.
"These poems stand their ground and fight back, uncompromising in their gifted bricolage. High-ceilinged, kaleidoscopic, tumbling down the page."
— Merrill Gilfillan
"Aaron Simon combines Zen-like non-constraint with the feel of an urbane metaphysic: heavy/light but not heavy-lite. Vividly, and with precise diction, his observations challenge any one-to-one realism, yielding something that falls together wholly by indirection. In the gems of On My Way, the mental life weaves easily and with wit into a fragmentary logic, unsentimental yet moving: “I know about survival/ Spring Forward, Fall Back."
— John Godfrey
