Sobre IBD

My poems have helped me see things for years now. Looking back on my poems, written and now collected, I discover I see things anew not only the remembered incidents (when that happens) but also the vision created in my mind by the poem itself. These poems, collected from parts of the life I ran past now, are glimpses that offer glimpses of what is seen and what that seeing seems to mean. I find that poems best serve me in becoming the creator of insights and perspective. The poems in this book have been giving that gift for me again.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

  • Familiar Smiles and Aging Faces
    William Flewelling
    Writing poetry has proven to be a great aid in seeing what I see, hearing what I hear. From my perspective, something happens, something gets noticed. The image, the happening strikes my mind, entices some response in words. An image or sequence of images appear and enter into a line. The line bears for me a cadence and a sound. Vowels tend to be important to me and help t...
