Speaks for Itself: A Commodity of Musings from My Life by Jeffrey Paul Bailey

For the casual admirer of poetry, Bailey’s “Speaks for Itself” is a vitally refreshing piece of work with prose traversing disparate subjects from societal woes to sexual identity to Donald Trump. With humor injected and puns that are punchy and more often than not which eschew rules about meter, Bailey’s words offset the gravity of our woes by even writing droll tales of the workplace. There is no experience for which he cannot find the right words – even angst-addled elderly.
