There Was a Man, There Was No Such Man

Crisp - there was a man

By day, Robert Crisp teaches writing and literature at Armstrong State University in Savannah, GA. By night (and usually during the day, if he’s honest) he writes poems. He has pieces forthcoming in MockingHeart Review and Sweet Tree Review.

  3. Thanks! I took a chance with this one (both in formatting and style). I was really unsure of the bug at the end, but something told me to keep it in. Glad I did. : )

  4. Love the final line here. I’m transported into some 19th century romantic verse only to be rocketted into the present in a poingnant and humorous way. Well done sir!
