'Singer, fruit picker, behind his father, walking music thru desert sunrise.' Through images and color, the spiritual and the philosophical, the poetry of Joe Montaño III connects the reader to the natural world and to his own cultural past. His words strive to surpass the average daily dialogue and bring light to the breadth of human fallacy - the scope of which can compel a compassionate soul to speak with the conviction of punk and DIY principles and through the filter of profound abstraction. 'There oughta-be-a burn down the town anthem stuttered by the tongues of youth, those failures waiting for sunrise so to daydream.' Through a universal lens, the poet seeks to create art that not only endures, but moves and travels with the reader. A personal truth, Joe Montaño’s words reflect the reality of humanity in surrealistic detail. To identify with these poems is to walk a brambled path - conceding ego, confessing fault - and also illumed by the thought of the inherent golden core to which we can all aspire. 'The sun has called him a murderer, and punishes his skin and eyes...taking his god away while shading the poet, the dandy rebel, and the lovers like naked gypsies bathing in the light.'

  • 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....

    The road trip is the prayer. California Prayer conveys the beauty of a false paradise, one we acknowledge is imperfect, but a finer place than the one we accept. Though applied here in a secular frame, a prayer is always honest. Pursuing true love, deliverance from addiction and the crossroads of identity and place perch on the fingertips and tongue of the poems within. Like a ...
