Most of the poems in this book were written while sitting on the edge of a lazy pond contemplating life, nature, and the feelings they created. The poems in this book take the reader on a journey through nature, the seasons, memories, and feelings, as well as some fears he had during distinctive periods in his aging life.

An original voice, Ronnow puts some meaning back into the term experimental. This is poetry that is both distinctive and based in the best elements of a literary tradition. Often political, sexual, emotional, but most of all surprising, Ronnow is a man and poet whose personal convictions and writing passion are not mutually exclusive. His poems find "salvation in the details" and have the virtues of honesty, simplicity of statement that coexists with complexity of intent, and a clear commitment to speak to the reader. The insights, the lyricism, and the wry humor make very rich reading.

This is definitely not your run-of-the-mill poetry collection. Instead, it's an adventurous journey through poetry, art, and imaginative assessment.

I fondly dedicate this book to all the midnight coffee-campers in coffee shops and diners around the world. When 4:00 AM rolls around and you're wired on about three pots of gut-rot coffee, scribbling on napkins or in notebooks, or goofing around with friends... Remember that these times, no matter how insignificant they may seem at the moment, are priceless... Cherish every caffeine-inspired bit of it.

Poets naturally search for meaning in all acts and gestures, then invest themselves in the discoveries made. With To Take and Have Not, Keith Moul has concluded a very long examination of his own and others' psychological relationships. For more than thirty years, Keith has literally re-mastered numerous versions of these poems until each is truly complete. He calls them "idiom" poems. Each begins with a common idiom that employs a "to take" infinitive that must then be mined for original riches; each is an exposition of a male and female couple's relationship; each enters new territory; each sets an objective suggested by the idiom used, then wrestles with discoveries. None of the poems offer answers to any questions.

Mind-control has been studied, tested, and perfected through projects led by one man: the monk, Father Rene Dumas. But what does he intend to use this technology for? And why do the key scientists affiliated with this project suddenly turn up dead? Innocent nuns have computer control modules embedded in their brains and are assassinating French scientists. High-level intelligence officials are planning to use the complex brain-control system for their war on terror. A monk plans to use the system for personal vengeance, and two Catholic priests and a Bishop are in his sights. His unlikely alliance with top level figures in the Pentagon makes for an action-packed story filled with psychosis, assassinations, bedlam, and eventually redemption. This contemporary story concerns the path of a man's mind into spiritual chaos and the pathological actions he takes stemming from his pain and anguish due to the abuse of loved ones at the hands of religious leaders.

As a volume of poems and photos, Reconsidered Light covers thousands of miles, through common scenes and unusual scenes, but each with provacative power that forced poetic responses to his photos by Keith Moul. He is powerless to resist capturing images that present themselves to him and is compelled often to mine those images for, what William Stafford, one of Keith's favorite poets, called "golden threads." Keith loves travel, especially by car, to any place with enough room to stop at the side of the road and record what he sees, views that many would pass without a second thought. Then he works those captured images into drama or beauty to his eye. His craft of poetry has evolved over more than 40 years to produce a calm, conversational cadence, in phrasings both lyric and narrative as appropriate to the images.
