"A few bad apples, they said / apples laced with poison / apples that kill"

A continuity flaws in film or television is a lapse in the consistency within a scene or story. In this book, Keith Allison's poetry explores the intentionally ignored lapses in a society or individual between the values we profess and the actions we take. As well as more personal pieces, examining lapses between our expectations as a parent or in a relationship and where we find ourselves.

“Keith Allison has accomplished something sobering and tremendous within these pages – a tour through the seasons of experience, of culture, and of the soul. If the bloom of Spring leaves you wanting, the heat of Summer is eager to warm your bones or set fire to your waiting belly. Whether it’s the changing sociopolitical landscape or the haunting ache of loneliness, Fall and Winter will catch a piece of your experience within its own pages and give you respite.”
