For the Love of Death, the early years: Comments

     When I published the second edition of this collection, I broke it into sections that seemed relevant in some way.  The sections are Obsidian, Chert, Flint, Cores, and Flakes.  These are all stages of finding artifacts in lithic technology.  If you ever find a copy of this collection, you can see if the section titles fit the poems in them.  Poetry is similar to making stone tools, but does not require as much blood, mostly . . .
     Most of the material that is in this volume was written well before 1993, so it is very young, and very experimental.
