Description

Rogal's fourth book of poetry, Geometry of the Odd is a delightfully irreverent book of poems about life in the big city. Nothing the writer touches is sacred, but the perceptive reader will find that much is held seriously in awe. Full of literary allusions and illusions, these poems yield their kernel of truth to those willing to take time to crack them.
