Sobre IBD

This kinetic-mojo poetry book was loosely designed to be read outloud, as a performance piece. It can be read as a standard poetry book; however, these versifications lend themselves best to a traditional jazz accompaniment-but this is not a hard and fast rule. (Play with it.) And please feel free to stop in on any local coffeehouse open mic night; and if you’re feeling bold enough; use these words... until you’ve found your own. Tell them, 'Rorry Nighttrain East sent me.' Perhaps... you too will find out that you are an 'August-messenger', and together we may just re-inspire the grand revival of (bongo and bass guitar background music), with the elan of spoken poetry-to be an art form that will live on.

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

  • One Kiss
    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....
