Please, No More Poetry
``Wayman..believes that poetry exists beyone 'the money economy' and because of this freedom it creates the highest potential to drive social change. His concerns are humanist and folksy, infused with the moral responsibility of integrity. This series, because of its...scope and space...allows the reader to see how Wayman's immersions in these moral concerns have developed and morphed from those of the lowly factory worker to those of acute environmental observance. Always the poems are permeated by intense attention to...a sense of justice.'' -- Micheline Maylor -- Alberta Views, June 2014, 201406
