Sobre IBD

Poems spanning four decades from Portland, Oregon poet and writer, David Porter. David began writing verse in high school, published his first poem 'Hitchhiking In Winter' in the late 60s. He continued to write through years of raising four children and working on community projects as a way to earn a living. The poem 'Thoughts While Crossing The Steel Bridge' was a runner-up in Oregon’s Ben Hur Lampman poetry contest in the 1980s. With that and few other exceptions, this is his first offering from that body of work.

Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. 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....
