Ron Koertge explores human fragility throughout history in his poetry collection, PANDORA'S KITCHEN
"Moral certainties and stereotypes vanish in these sly/subversive, satiric/tender, achingly funny/humane poems."-Amy Gerstler - "They are poetry at its best, causing his readers to laugh, think, and feel anew."-Billy Collins, former US poet laureate. The subjects in Ron Koertge's poems include Hades' unhappy wife Persephone, Nancy Drew, and Dracula's Wives. The subjects in Ron Koertge's poems include Hades' unhappy wife Persephone, Nancy Drew, and Dracula's Wives. He has located Jane Austen at the mall, comforted the sun itself, and celebrated a winning day at the races. In an early poem, he extols his chosen vocation by saying this: "It's so great to be a poet. I'm basically self-employed with nobody to please but myself." Yet pleasing his many fans is at the top of his Things-To-Do list. That is why poets from Billy Collins to B. H. Fairchild have called his poems masterful, quirky, deliciously sly, inventive and surprisingly sweet.
