Poetry by M.G. Stephens and collages by Archie Rand. Old Popeye cartoons are the subject, satire verbal and visual is the intent. Popeye and Olive Oyl, Bluto and Wimpy all gather in the present as an epipsychidian flavored with American ease and powerful punches that land, Blam!, directly on the lantern jawed.

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

    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....

  • ORNITHOLOGY
    M. G. Stephens
    M. G. Stephens considers our physical world and its health as portrayed by our own relationship to birds and their well-being. Here the birds are bellwethers of the Earth’s and our own human survival. But mostly these poems are about that most human of emotions-love-in all its permutations. This poet is not afraid to be lyrical and to love; in fact, he sees the lyrical impulse ...
