The world may never run out of madmen, I mean lets be fucking real, but isn’t that the point of poetry, of any art really, to take the wind out of the sails of mountebanks and blackguard megalomaniacs? Fortunately, we have poets like Jeremy Gulley for just such and occasion. With Inner Thought of a Stable Genius he effortlessly balances the real and the absurd, the spiritual and blasphemous and these poems circle from biting and urgent to simple and light. In this world we are inundated with a morass of hubris, these poems may not combat that, but they give a foothold or perhaps a step up to see above/ beyond our current state of pettifogging.Jason Baldinger The Better Angels of Our Nature Jeremy Gulley is a style unto himself. Frank, potent, brutal, yet full of humor and heart, his poems shed light onto a world just beneath the surface. His poems highlight that part of the world, those people, those situations that are often unintentionally overlook as we are all too involved in our own microcosmic drama. Inner Thoughts of a Stable Genius, a provocative title in our times for sure, shows us these shadows of the world, but also, as the title suggests, gives the reader plenty of insight into the creative process, and into the mind of the book’s creator. From idle conversations with friends, to romantic relations, to reactions to the socio-political climate, to wiping Cheeto dust from the keyboard, nothing is off topic, but it is all necessary in this timeless document of our times.  - James Benger, author of Things Have Changed  'At turns serious, funny, and heartbreaking, Inner Thoughts of a Stable Genius will sneak up on you, and tap at your shoulder throughout the day, reminding you there is beauty in the simple, the insane, if you simply allow yourself brief glimpses of the madness surrounding you.'   -Dan Krause -- Author and poet  3

    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.
