Naked Eyes
Poetry of Youth
by Larry B. Gray
The late sixties and early seventies
was a time of change in our world. The belief that everything was perfect was
coming to an end. America was bogged down in an unpopular war in Vietnam which
for the first time was broadcast nightly into everyone’s living room via TV.
Between the anti-war demonstrations and the civil rights movement, political
unrest was rampant. Drug use was widespread as people tried to “turn on, tune
in and drop out.”
The poems in this collection follow
no central theme and are random glimpses of my thoughts during this time of
coming of age. Each poem has the date that it was written printed at the top of
the page and reflects my little world and how I felt at that time.
