{"product_id":"2940154084977","title":"Poems 2007-2017","description":"\u003cp\u003ePoems written between 2007-20017. These poems reflect themes common to much poetry--life's difficulties and brevity. Some are responses to books I have read, most though were composed in response to situations I have found myself in. These situations are not in any way unique though at the moment of composition they presented themselves to me with a certain urgency. An example is the poem I wrote while shopping at a mall A Day Out in the World. It contains the commonplace feeling of alienation that often arises in circumstances like that. However, it also expresses a feeling of hope or at least comfort that being human allows us--not often perhaps but just often enough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ralph Lake","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47174608716016,"sku":"2940154084977","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940154084977_p0.jpg?v=1764063660","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940154084977","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
