Poems from the Mud Room
“Tantalizingly irreverent; Camner’s work smacks of the deliciously absurd with a point. He is a brilliantly bizarre poet and master of the surreal.” - Lenny DellaRocca The Poetry Museum “Camner defies the traditional aesthetic concepts of poetry. He targets a world of ideas in a rather active way as opposed to the more passive, meditative aspects found in most poetry. There is a linguistic simplicity to his poems, an almost transparent quality, over a rather complex web of experience and thought. His poetry is life... ‘All you have to do is look’ – The obvious and not so obvious.” - Marta Braunstein, editor Cambio Literary Journal “Camner writes in terse, stark, real verse ...
Turbulence at 67 Inches

The writing is at once brutally honest, very funny, at times heartbreaking, and often inspiring. The journey begins during the Bicentennial. It is America’s 200th birthday.

Happy Birthday to . . . Who?
There was a time when I had goals and dreams for my life, but now all I do is go to birthday parties. When I’m at these birthday parties, I’ve noticed that the kids have fun and the women yak it up, but the men are as lost as lost could be. They are absolutely miserable. They remind me of the last scenes of the 1962 cult classic Carnival of Souls where all the lifeless spirits just meander around aimlessly—their vital spark gone, their once-twinkling eyes glazed over. During the week, these guys are attorneys, doctors, high-powered businessmen, pillars of the community, and big shots of all kinds; but on the weekends, at these kids’ birthday parties, they are all lost, tormented soul...
