To help celebrate the event, two local poets, Patricia Smekal and Mary Ann Moore

No Way
Easy, David Fraser’s third collection of poetry, is raw and candid in its
responsive reflection on the universal journey toward awareness. He begins with
observations from a state of shock produced by the entrance into the unconsciousness
of the world. From there he moves through the chaos and trauma of growing up and
delves into memory and epiphany in a life of ordinary circumstance seen through
extraordinary eyes. This is a journey we all must take, surviving the shock of
childhood and adolescence and becoming our own unique selves, free of the pain
and suffering of the past.
These poems are narratives that will strike
a chord and evoke in the reader, his or her own different but similar stories. Title:
