Review quote
"Here is poetry that has been honed from countless feature readings spread across the country . The National Beat Poet Laureate clearly earned the honors with both exquisite artistry and dedication to literature . I get handed free poetry books all the time, but this one I bought, I urge you to do the same . In the pages are tears and triumphs, setbacks and progress, underlying the whole composition is truth and the full spectrum of emotions, bottom line this is one damn fine book." - Colin Haskins, Co-Founder of National Beat Poetry Foundation, Inc.
"Reading William F. DeVault's poetry imparts a classical education upon the tongue. Any lingering mystery of meaning is to be savored for later." - Daniel McTaggart, West Virginia Beat Poet Laureate
"William F. DeVault shows a passion in his poetry and writing that will take you on a journey to experience feelings you were unaware you had. We first met William also known as The Romantic Poet of the Internet, in 2015, and he has been an integral part of our Beat Poetry family ever since. There was no doubt we had made the right choice when we named him the US National Beat Poet Laureate (2017-2018)." - Debbie Tosun Kilday, Co-Founder of National Beat Poetry Foundation, Inc.
"Calling William F. DeVault a poet would be a statement of redundancy. His name is equated with poetry both within the poetry community and elsewhere. To say he is prolific would also unnecessary. He can write the quills off a porcupine. But don't let his vast library of poetry fool you. Each poem is carefully crafted to create the most powerful of images. William is known as a romantic poet and he belongs with those greats of romantic poetry like Blake, Shelley, Keats and Byron. Welcome to the world of William F. DeVault, feast upon his words and enjoy the succulence of every syllable." - Larry Jaffe, Poet of the People
