Critical Commentary

 “I then read Michael Adams and realized what a powerful punch this cat’s got... This guys got elegy in his bloodstream, a heart the size of the Rockies.” - Kirpal Gordon (poet and writer) re: Mad Blood #2 (Oct 2003)

“Michael Adams is a man who believes with his eyes and says what he sees.  These are poems of naming, of talk, of travels, of speech pointing in all directions... Next time you get the urge to open your mouth, run your tongue over these.” - Eric Paul Shafer (poet) Introduction to Broken Hand
