'At the 50th Anniversary Beat Conference at NYU in 1994, Gregory Corso lead off his part of the Town Hall Concert with the statement that poets should bring the News of the Day to the community; with that he read a piece he had written only hours before the concert with his poet's comments on the day's goings on. Since then I've taken it upon myself, prior to a reading or concert, to find that poem that is the News of the Day, reading it to start off the event.' (from the Acknowlegements) These poems are of this sort. John - 2007

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.

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner

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....

Here there is pain, and joy, and something that straddles them, what John at times refers to as “beauty.”The poetry is disarmingly mature. He’s not t...
