A collection of poetry infused with the authors’ acute powers of observation and his accumulated understanding of human nature, and the human experience. These are poems about the inner soul of man, his natural surroundings, his struggles with love and identity, sexuality, and relationship. The book includes chapters entitled, ‘Illuminating the Obvious’, ‘Love and Other Illusions’, ‘Faces in the Fog’, ‘Lives and Innuendo’, ‘Sexual Ideations’, ‘Shapes and Shadows’, and ‘Mental Indiscretions’. The poems are a look at, and accounting of, life as it is lived with an honesty of intention, with its social proclivities and confusing ambiguity; life lived, for the most part, out from under the fear of unintended consequences. A book for those given to self-reflection, and for those finally willing to move in that direction.

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...

    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 Wild Horses
    Denes McIntosh
    As a young boy I lived in a neighborhood surrounded by wild mustard weeds. In the spring and summer I spent hours building tunnels and forts in the fields with my brothers and friends. A sense of freedom that was anathema to the tension I lived with in the house. A magic land left to the imaginations, and the machinations of the children. No adults allowed. No one coming around...
