Bringing together over five decades of written material "Poetry For People: Fifty Years of Writing" is the first collection from Kansas poet Dixie Lubin. From the tumult of her Southern Baptist childhood, to a free-love 1960s young adulthood, through fifty years of marriage and raising three daughters in poverty, while touching countless lives as a teacher and artist, Dixie has engaged with it all through her unique artistic lens.
Her voice encompasses the scope of the human condition, invoking earthly lust, mystic meditation, bawdy humor and vivid grief, connecting deeply with everyone fortunate enough to encounter her words. Out of a life shaped by love, loss, and a devotion to humanity and the planet itself, this volume is the indelible result of the inimitable Dixie.
