Sobre IBD

The Lilacs of Yearning is a collection of 88 poems written over the past ten years - most are quite recent.  From floaters in the eye or the brush of a hummingbird’s wing, to conversations overheard at the race track, this is a sensory scrapbook tracing anger, humor, desire and memory.  Felix’s powerful voice and physical presence highlight his many readings in the San Francisco Bay Area and come through palpably on the page. 'It has been a pleasure to publish Morton’s poetry.  We devoted an entire issue to his You Say You Love Dandelions.  His work deserves the widest publication . . . vibrant and stimulating.' -- Stanley McNail, late editor of the Galley Sail Review.

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....
