As someone challenged by the legend of Shakespeare writing King Lear during his own pandemic and trying to make the most of ours, I became an autodidactic poet adapting a classic form - English sonnets - to modern stories.Unfortunately - and about this, let me be clear - I am not a poet. I am, in parts, a father, an engineer, son, brother, carpenter, friend, philanthropist, and mediocre endurance athlete. These definitions, and my experiences fulfilling them, serve as the foundation of my work.My poems are rough, but as the rough sawn nature of barn wood adds to, rather than detracts from, its beauty, I hope that the folksy, down-to-earth, literal approach to the lofty sonnet will add to, rather than detract from, the art form.The work opens with a prologue that critiques modern poetry and implies a need to return to classical form. To invert the advice of van der Rohe, function will follow form. The rhythm and meter of the sonnet require preservation, with the subject elevated by the form itself.The first section proves this point using homespun narratives and family lore to demonstrate the utility of the sonnet. It highlights universal topics of family, community and fellowship through quintessential midwest subject matter - nature, hard work, and play time.In the second section, I dare myself to prove the adaptability of the sonnet, taking on topics as far-flung as Sysephus, antidisestablishmentarianism, and professional sports contracts. The absurdity is the point - the sonnet is a vehicle for any story needing to be told (and maybe a few that don't).In the third section, I get unapologetically salty using the sonnet as a microscope under which to examine society's peccadilloes, including a few self-recriminations.The work closes with an appeal to the audience to remember me fondly and well - but not too seriously.

Authors are routinely advised to write about that which they know, and so, accordingly, my first toe dip into the world of poetry, "Songs from the Heartland," focused on family stories, absurdities to which the response "you think too much" could be understood and forgiven, and frustration with the world around me - topics with which I am intimately familiar. (Maybe I'll someday write a poem about run-on sentences.) This second collection focuses the mind in a way that "Songs" never did (although there are still elements of lore, tangential thoughts, and irksome behavior).The prologue recognizes the duality of the Midwest, with each section expanding on that duality by exploring the temptation and temperance; the depravity and discipline; the passion and patience; the bluster and balance that tenuously coexist.The first section delves into the world of bad decisions, their consequences, and the sometimes understandable resentment that develops as a reaction to those consequences. The second section meditates on the enlightenment available to those willing to seek it in themselves and in those around them.Together, these two themes - let's call them Solipsism and Stoicism - combine to inform the fatalism that comes from necessarily relying on the inherently unreliable whims of nature, forging a dichotomy of attitude that maintains sanity in an always unpredictable world.The epilogue memorializes the social contract between the individual and the community regarding that relationship.

The story "Thief" begins: "When my mother removed her shirt in front of third-period honors English, I was in the classroom next door taking a test." Her reason --her students were reading The Awakening and she had stopped taking her medication. The battle against self-destruction, the struggle to transform loss into meaning, and the difficulty of connecting with others, especially those closest to our hearts, are part of what make up these beautifully crafted and, in turns, incisively humorous and deeply wrenching stories. In the title story, a man who transports organs for transplants breaks in a trainee and ruminates on his sometimes futile life-and-death existence. In "Dog Lover," a son has a quiet but smoldering battle of wills with his blind Vietnam-vet father over the fate of their dying dog. In "Sadness of the Body," an adolescent boy spends a deliriously hot summer with his alcoholic uncle and the uncle's young girlfriend, and observes the sometimes surreal schism between the body and the mind. Brown plumbs the hearts and minds of characters trying to make sense of their lives. He is a new and exquisitely talented voice in American fiction.
