Behold … 

a new poetry collection by Jay Bryan

Jay Bryan’s poems present an orchestra of voices singing the stories we need to hear. ~ Gideon Young, Poet and Educator

Jay Bryan hears voices. When he gets the spirit, he speaks in tongues. ~ Alex Harris, Duke Univ. Professor Emeritus

So much modern poetry … is about “me”—my perceptions, opinions, my consciousness of self. These poems are about others—other humans, seen and heard as they are.  Behold seems exactly the right title. ~ Joe Cone, retired faculty, Oregon State Univ.
