Welcome to the world of Jason Ryberg--a world of true crimes and misdemeanors in the American grain transformed through the poets retelling into miniature works of art.Rattlesnake tough but also tender-hearted. -Kevin Rabas Poet Laureate of Kansas (2017-2019)Reading Ryberg is like driving a pick-up truck across Kansas on shrooms and his imagery as fresh as a midnight S curve takes the reader on a journey from city streets to wheat fields navigating through a landscape bright with the five-battery-flashlight of a moon. A Secret History of the Nighttime World the twelfth book of poetry by Ryberg delivers one great breath of fire directly from his heart onto the page.
