The theme of the "reminisces, observations and opinions" as sought to be poetically expressed in these works, include no intended universal underlying topic but rather result from the author's attempt to achieve a catharsis of the author's frustration to, not having undertaken previously, original art and reflect overwhelmingly the author's occasions of instant inspiration during, almost without exception, the wee hours of the night. The author touched upon, directly and indirectly, some of his life's experiences, indeed, but also many of his philosophical beliefs, cultural recognitions and ruminations as to matters of life, love, professional endeavor and common every day occurrences and affiliations. The author intends no single purpose by the content of this work and felt free to "ruminate", "hold forth" and "put his two bits in". From the content of the work, can be gleaned not only many of the author's beliefs and philosophies but his desire for all of us "to live it well". Other than to hope for appreciation of the expressions in the substance of this work, the author aspires to nothing more than tolerant consideration of those expressions herein included.

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....
