DISCLAIMER: I relinquish any and all responsibility for the contents of this book ? contingent solely upon that burden of conscience by which I am compelled to abide. This collection of poems was inspired by a world made more cynical as it emerged in the wake of the new millennium. As the dangers of deception and treachery became reality, vulnerabilities were exposed with far-reaching and tragic consequences. It is that reality with which this book is concerned ? that of Inconceivable Truth ? the kind of truth that could cause folks to squirm should they dare to take a look. WARNING: Much of this book contains material of an explicitly political or social nature.

    Jennifer Chrystie

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....

  • All the More Reason to Say It!
    Robert McGee Jr
    Perhaps it is my misfortune that my chief source of inspiration should have anything to do with politics: My reaction to the absurdity of the historical record pertaining to the central event of our time can be found upon the pages of this laconic little book. What can also be found is my intent to clarify a few relevant points while further narrowing the focus and thrust of my...
