The forty-eight poems in Sky Sandwiches echo John F. Buckley's wry, paradoxical perspective, a point of view evoking both the transcendent and the quotidian, fusing a sky associated with religion and higher yearnings with the sandwiches of simpler sustenance. In his poems as in this world, people fly like crooked arrows, seeking targets both above and below. The collection describes how our desires lead us to absurd hopes and stale resignations, humble dreams and sublime despairs. It recounts the ways we may seek both eternal salvation and a half-decent Italian sub. Parts are tender. Parts are funny. Parts will get stuck in your braces.

Review I love John F. Buckley's work. His humor, energy, and charisma burst out of his poetry. I love poetry which comes to life, is personified . . . And I love the humanity that all of his characters have and the humanity that is clearly the center of this talented poet's being. -John Brantingham, author of East of Los Angeles [Book Interior]John F. Buckley's Sky Sandwiches is a five-course Michelin meal . . . This collection cradles the reality of modern popular culture that is imbedded in our psyche . . . He is to be savored as his words caress the sadness that comes from the pain of living . . . -T. Anders Carson, author of Death Is Not the Worst Thing [Book Interior]In his first full-length book of poetry, Sky Sandwiches, John F. Buckley serves up an engaging concoction of humility, self-deprecating humor, classical references, the sensuous pleasure of well-placed words, and a keen observation of humanity's tenderness and limitations . . . -Marta Chausée, author of Resort to Murder [Book Interior]John F. Buckley has mastered the art of absurdity. Trilling a surrealist high note while striking the bar chords of narrative, Sky Sandwiches proves that eccentric imagery and galumphing streams of diction enhance emotion and create empirical phrases of melodic motion . . . -Cory De Silva, editor for Bank-Heavy Press [Book Interior]Reading John F. Buckley's poems is like romping through a modern-day painting by Hieronymous Bosch . . . The poems in Sky Sandwiches travel the landscape from menace to whimsy, stopping along the way to tickle the imagination at every turn . . . -Tamara Madison, author of Wild Domestic [Book Interior]
From the Back Cover Surrealism is one of the most ruthlessly understood concepts in art, a veritable coat rack upon which artists have hung every excuse for provocation. In Sky Sandwiches by John F. Buckley, the poet reminds us that surrealism is not an end but a means. His incredible imagery, wordplay, and humor all combine to summon a world at once real, urgent, and familiar.-Brendan Constantine, author of Calamity Joe

Buckley is that deliciously talented sous chef of poetry who now invites you to the opening of his cool joint: Sky Sandwiches. On the menu is a multicultural fusion of everyday life intermixed with the myths of heaven and earth, and spiced with the personal and political throughout.Here you'll see emperors seated alongside renters, evil Boy Scout masters sharing cocktails with poems masquerading as famous people, and robot pigeons and moon rabbits darting underneath the tablecloths. The dinner conversation is peppered with Swedish, Swahili, Polish and Mandarin accents and satisfying morsels of people striving to make ends meet, to make lover work, and to make the world a place they can call home.Take a seat and let the banquet begin.

He expresses the longings in every person for community, acceptance, and yes, even that old tired emotion, love. He has the courage to show us his own regrets and vulnerabilities. He serves it up fresh with his original turn of phrase. It follows naturally from his original way of thinking.Take for example "Portrait of a Dying Marriage as an Unplugged Refrigerator". Who but Buckley would think to characterize that trapped, unhappy feeling as "Locked inside the main compartment are we, two kindergartners who kidnapped each other for comfort and vengeance..."When I read the opening line of "Saturday, 10:30AM," I knew I was in for a treat. The poet in me was jealous that I never saw a yard sale as the rich, multlitextured material for a fine poem that it is.If only the book came with a DVD-- that would be perfection. The only thing better than reading John Buckley's words is hearing and seeing him perform them.Marta Chausée, author, Maya French mystery seriesMurder's Last ResortOak Tree PressMurders Last Resort French Mystery
