Roads Not Traveled: Collection of Poems by t. kilgore splake

Review by Sharon Brunner

The poems in this book, Roads Not Traveled: Collection of Poems, were inspired by Robert Frost. Travelers are strongly affected by the decisions they make, for better or worse. T. Kilgore Splake felt forced to take a path less wanted instead of a naval career. Teaching at the college level had its ups and downs. It was not what gave him life satisfaction. He pursued a starving artist path in a small U.P. Michigan village, Calumet. Driven by his creative forthcomings, he set up a life for himself filled with dedication, determination and structure. He has published over 30 poetry books and poetry DVDs.

One of the poems from this book:

ancient Nikon camera
like cartier-bresson’s old leica
passport beyond ordinary

Another poem:

triple espresso caffeine hit
sugar jolt of cola
poet ready for blank page

The poet provided approximately 100 poems in this poetry book. This creative work is thought provoking.
