Think of Holden Caulfield,,
By J. Erickson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ha-Ha: Poems (Paperback)
older and wryer and not the least bit jaded by all the sad strange beautiful horrendous stuff that happened to happen. That's the voice in a David Kirby poem. The Ha-Ha is Kirby's latest collection of really good stories, and when was the last time you smiled out loud while reading a goddam poem?

Ironic title, huh?,
By Simon G. Barrett - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ha-Ha: Poems (Paperback)
From the co-compiler of the Seriously Funny anthology, this is seriously not a LOL collection. Kirby styles himself a narrative poet but is more like a tedious after-dinner speaker; his limp anecdotes and self-satisfied ramblings are not helped by a lackadaisical approach to technique verging on the indifferent - result: monotony.
