Book excerpt: Giant fiberglass statues of Paul Bunyan. Enormous balls of twine. A hiking trail atop a manmade mountain of contained nuclear waste. This is the landscape of an American oddities roadtrip, and it is also the poetic muse for John Wojtowicz, a clinical social worker, adjunct professor, and outdoorsman. Where other people may see a photo opportunity, John sees deeper truths and rolls them out in poems that are entertaining, profound, and well-crafted. In this edition, the poems are richly illustrated with color images of the attractions he describes.
