"Sunlight Through Bullet Holes is a book with a sound track. The metaphoric metronome for these poems is what some people may simply call jazz. Years ago in Atlanta, I performed with a quartet whose member said the way I read my poetry reminded him of Miles because I took deep breaths and I kept going until there was no breath left. With my affinity to the power, growl, and lyrics of Miles' former rocker wife, Betty Davis, and my love for rock and roll, I never thought deeply into the comparison until now."--Introduction, page 1.
