Beekeeper poet has a distinct voice
Poet Haz Saïd begins his intriguing book, Town and Country, with this quote from Horace: "What expatriate escapes himself as well?" The answer constitutes much of the charm of his slim volume of verse. [...]

"Off the Grid" is Saïd's expatriate poems written in San Francisco and, apparently, here where he is working as a beekeeper and ranch hand at Blue Lake Ranch.

Every poet needs a real job. His would be the one for me.
