John Zedolik has come to organize his poetry based upon three primary sources of inspiration: observation, recollection, and rumination. This collection includes approximately ninety lyric poems ordered by these themes. These poems demonstrate the importance of paying attention to aspects of one’s mental, emotional, and physical life—even apparently minor aspects—as every moment is sui generis and a source of inspiration for not only the composition of poetry but the continuing appreciation of walking, thinking, and feeling upon this earth. Moreover, readers might find themselves considering their own sources of inspiration for any endeavor—artistic or otherwise.
John Zedolik is an adjunct English professor at Chatham University and Duquesne University in Pittsburgh. In 2019, he published his first full-length collection, Salient Points and Sharp Angles, and in 2021 his second collection, When the Spirit Moves Me, which is spiritually themed. His third collection, Mother Mourning, was published in 2023; his fourth, The Ramifications, in 2024; and his fifth, Lovers' Progress, in 2025. Zedolik's iPhone is his primary poetry notebook, which is invaluable in preserving inspiration.
