Now here he is a zillion light years later, still the dreamer with a love for the process that's never left him, an elder statesman of the world with a collection of his poetry and poetic songs. Poetry and songs that span the life of the man. Poetry concretized and wrapped up into this lovely eclectic collection. Poetry that only Grant could write."
