Summary: Optimism in Darkness
Comment: Ryan's poetry sparkles in the dead of a mid-life crisis. He juxtaposoes both the empathetic and the sarcastic. These poems are testaments for those who ponder through depression in search of inspiration. His prosaic imagery transcends the commplace, and rolls with the back-beats of route 66. Filled with references that range from Leadbelly to William Butler Yeats, these poems prove to be works of vision. Even in the face of despair, they are full of humor and passion. This is poetry for both the intellectual and the dreamer. This is because these poems are alive--feel them branch out into rythms, melody lines filled with chants that break and refrain. Ryan states, "What wakes with music, wakes the muse." And, I agree. Like Dylan Thomas and TS Eliot before him, Ryan writes poetry that goes beyond the page and into the hearts of generations.
