Critical Commentary

“I devoured over half the book in the parking lot outside the post office.  I pulled over three blocks later, lit a cigarette and devoured the other half.  I would like to have a beer with Gladeview.  He is a natural story-teller with an astute eye, scathing wit, and a wicked sense of humor!  The book features striking cover art by award-winning photographer Eleanor Bennett.  Absolutely stunning in its content and creation – another winner from PigeonBike Press.  This isn’t a POD press, these books are built from ground zero, each book you can feel the adventure by touch alone…”  
(Wolf Carstens, Epic Rites Press)

Just Ignore The Beer Stains is the work of a true barstool prophet.  Gladeview writes accessible, engaging poetry on the darkness and the light of the everyday and the Everyman, dispensing shots of wit and more than a few lingering chasers of wisdom.”  
(Chris Yurkoski, Domesday Notebook)

“The poems hit harder than Mike Tyson.”
