Mike Satcher’s poetic visions are generally set up by the first word, thought, idea, or line of his experience. Each vision follows the next, and poses a statement that relates or could be related, but wants to take readers along viewing their own way of perspective.
Many pieces in Out of the Flock were invented years ago, but could be analogous.
He says, “Before this publication, I supplied drawings or cartoons that related to the work as coincidental affect. I’m interested in helping readers see compositions in broad or narrow rationale. And if having human sensibilities helps, my points are not to screw you up, rather to take invention to other levels.”
Not everything in life makes sense. This poetry collection presents more or less humor, scientific ideas, or fantasy in text. Here is one sample:
Ancient History
Ancient History, can’t go forward
Without considering the past
Anecdotes abound, used to be
Entertainment’s greater than
Ever, movies seem so real
Preview of coming attractions
Either attracts opposites repel
I was thinking about a Navajo
Indian woman works weaving
But as she turned out
Turned into a beautiful
Orchid becomes seeds
