Ark II -  Poems 1994-1998 & Grand Cru in Plastic Cups  

by L. Kenneth Fator

Fator's second book of poems shows us his capacity for ribaldry, in poems that are more akin to prose than those in his first volume. He is again not intent on showing us the world as one would like to see it, and lets his humor match the less attractive side of mankind. Which is not to say that there is not a subtler Fator to be found in this book, but the majority of the poems give us a widening in scope of the humoristic tone with which we became accustomed in his Collected Poems.
