Poetry is music though, unfortunately, not all music is poetry. Because music has other carriers to take its message—beats, lyrics, singers, bass players—anyone in music can rise to make a major statement but in poetry there are only words to do the work. And they do sometimes have to sweat.

A s someone with plenty of eclectic fiction on his bookshelves, I admit there’s much to be said for authors who attempt true characters from their own sense of the commonplace—to most of us, perhaps, lives spent in exhausted locales we would pass without any generous contemplation—yet manage to subvert those stereotypes tempted, even expected. Before gleaning the stories of Breaking it Down, most set in bucolic portions of Pennsylvania, readers can already see the routine dilemma coming, of being caught between cliché and faithfulness.
