About the Book:
Special attention is given to the long-form in the thirteen poems that comprise LONGER I WAIT, MORE YOU LOVE ME, Walters’ first full-length poetry collection. With humor and eroticism, these poems note the subtle dynamics of relationship that can lead to loneliness, romance and even divine love. With dead-pan perceptiveness, this collection examines how misfortune occurs when we allow those moments, people and locations most familiar to us to pass by without acknowledgement of their resonant mystery.

With deadpan perceptiveness, the subtle dynamics of relationship that can lead to loneliness, romance and even divine love are noted as landscapes of consciousness. This collection examines how misfortune occurs when we allow those moments, people and locations most familiar to us to pass by without acknowledgement of their resonant mystery.
