Existential Cowboy - Brian R Strauss

Brian Strauss returns with his first collection of poetry in nine years. Existential Cowboy is a collection of poems that center on universal themes of death, age, grief, and the harrowing journey of grappling with one's own mortality.

Nearly a decade away has done little to dull Strauss' distinct sense of wordplay, compelling sensory perception, and ability to convey intimate scenes dripping with a tragic state of yearning. Strauss takes the phantom pain of loss and the grim introspection that follows and crafts a poetic narrative that only time, memory, and experience could craft.
