Synopsis

Fast Women Beautiful Fast women beautiful horses
banjos bluegrass bourbon
it's a region it's a religion it's a
way of life and on the first
Saturday in May it all comes
together for two heart-pounding
minutes at Churchill Downs race-
track in Louisville someday you
gotta go there sometime you
gotta see it by god it's wonderful
it's amazing there's nothing else
like it it's the Kentucky Derby

"One of the first things that drew me to Daniel Barth's poetry was the immediacy of his work, that is, how his imagery and subject matter pulled my focus into everyday life, made me pay attention to the elusive present. Whether he is telling us about driving a delivery truck in Louisville, Kentucky, for the Coca-Cola Bottling Company, or describing a Zen master sitting in the sun doing a crossword puzzle, Dan knows what it takes to remind us to seize the day."-From the Introduction by Hal Zina Bennett
