Book excerpt: Pour Me Another Poem is the sixth book of poetry composed by RD McManes. Written in a similar style to his last two books We Ain't in Kansas No More and Don't Read Me Like Some Poem this book is a blend of surreal and more traditional verse. Geared to touch the heart and soul of a reader it contains 92 pages of poetry. The title poem is "Pour me another poem" a metaphoric creation which compares poetry to a good stiff shot of whiskey. "Cloudy dreams" and "Prairie Sea" are examples of traditional free verse and "Almost once, I did" can only be classified as surreal. The author fills the book Pour Me Another Poem with metaphor, which opens the door for interesting interpretation by the reader.
