William J. Karnowski / William JKarnowski
William Karnowski writes to his wife, his children, and to the reader about the path he took from a small boy on a cattle ranch in Northeast Kansas to life in the fast lane in the urban jungles. His personal collection of poetic insights describes the faces and places of America. His prose and poetry paint written pictures of the joy of his childhood, the dangers of his youth, and his comfort in the great outdoors.Karnowski has traveled from Maine to California, from Canada to Mexico, absorbing and reflecting on his passage through the good and bad times from the late 60s to present. The date each poem was written has been recorded. The trickle of poems written in the early years has grown to a flood, which resulted in Pushing the Chain. Sometimes humorous, sometimes reflective, sometimes sad, but always honest; Pushing the Chain will strike chords of recognition in the heart and mind of the traveler, looking at his or her own life through the prose and poetry of William Karnowski.
