A slice of life by Elliot M Rubin "Side Street Poems" are reflections from the man who has walked the many side streets of the big city. You'll read about his vocations with a twist as especially Rubin delivers. Hear the thoughts and follow throughs of a man who recalls his youthful days and relates his later years. Find out how the two are in conflict and conquest. "Elliot Rubin delivers joy, insight, originality, social critique and devilish wit in his new book, side street poems. Imagine, if you can, a combination of Lenny Bruce, your mom's rabbi, and the metaphysical poets. Elliot rummages around in the dustbins and discards of squalid New York cityscapes to expose its tawdry underbelly. With a sensitive ear for dialogue, he is a masterful portrait painter. His spare, carefully crafted lyrics create a slice of urban life, animating the characters he develops, their collisions, losses, loves, near-misses, and frustrations in the best tradition of poets Charles Bukowski, Jack Kerouac, and Frank O'Hara. In his poem, "poetry community" Elliot writes, "...the beat poets...write freeform, let words and space perform...use metaphors like semaphores to tell a story" as does he in this new collection of poems. You are on high alert not to miss a word of his prodigious output." Roberta Batorsky, Freelance Science Journalist and Poet ~~~ Once again, Elliot captures all the moments that many take for granted. His poetry speaks to every person about topics from love to lust, from death to parenthood to politics. Rubin's poetry will stand the test of time in its relatable and down to earth form. This newest collection adds to a growing collection of compelling works. Charlene Brown
