Roxy is After Hours Poetry; when the lights go down and the memory of last call has faded into the exhaled smoke of a bummed cigarette
– Roxy comes to life. The poems are rooted in the street, caress (no slam) the frailties of the human relationship, lean toward the
erotic and show that honest poetry, feelings and emotions, cannot be confined by political correctness. In fact, Roxy is not a politically
correct collection. Cirillo, Gainer and Staple don’t tell those gentle lies.
William Gainer's poems bring both quick, natural laughter, and a punch to the heart. Sensuality and attention to detail light his work: a high heel shoe, a color, someone wanting to make everything clear as rain and right as the dark corners we can't see beyound.
