Title: Mister Toebones Author: Brooks Haxton Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini Format: mp3 Length: 1 hr and 28 mins Release date: 03-23-21 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: Animals & Nature Publisher's Summary: Brooks Haxton has been writing for years about the connections between human beings and the creatures we find fascinating. Mister Toebones, his new collection, draws its title from a nickname Haxton gives to a daddy longlegs he sees at his father's grave. In another poem, the poet and his mother, in search of a swimming hole, find a copperhead rearing to strike, about to birth its live young. Elsewhere, waist-deep in the Mississippi River, under the Atlantic Ocean, on the cracked ice of a frozen pond, even in outer space, the poet explores forces that seem past endurance.
