THE HOUSE YOU WERE BORN IN by Tanya Standish McIntyre

About THE HOUSE YOU WERE BORN IN:

Tanya Standish McIntyre’s words breathe life, capturing both the fear and the beauty of growing up in a rural working-class community, anchored by the magical bond between a young girl and her grandfather.
A story told in a collage of poems, painting a picture of an ancestral farm and those who pass through it. A book with a sweeping narrative power that will stay with you long after the last line.

“Each trenchant, graceful poem illuminates a time and a place, as though a light shone from behind memory.” – Mark Abley, author of The Tongues of Earth

Love Is a Mental Illness by Franco Cardiello

About Love Is a Mental Illness:

A mental health counselor dissects his own toxic relationships. Lyrical lines and raw honesty tell an emotional linear story of mental health, abuse, breakups, and death. Love has the ability to drive us crazy, but narrative poetry fosters self-reflection and self-growth. Cathartic writing infused with psychology will educate and resonate.

THE BOOK OF I.P. (Idle Poems) by Chris Courtney Martin

About THE BOOK OF I.P. (Idle Poems):

THE BOOK OF I.P. is described as “ironic in concept, sincere in content” as it deconstructs prescribed best-practices for getting ideas greenlit as a screenwriter, and what it means to possess a producible story. Each work in the collection represents an ode to story concepts Martin finds screen-worthy. Most of these concepts are wholly original, while a couple poems hint at some unorthodox reboots on the writer’s “wishlist.”

Sew Me Wide-Eyed to the Fabric of Your Tongue by Dennis Collins Johnson

About Sew Me Wide-Eyed to the Fabric of Your Tongue:

Sew Me Wide-Eyed to the Fabric of Your Tongue offers an ironically personal perspective on living, loving, and sorrow, intersprinkled with dynamic imagery, emotion-infused wordplay, pertinent themes, a panoply of styles, and a number of inobvious but purposeful techniques, such as epanalepsis, that many readers may never even notice.

For over 50 years, performing artist and self-expression advisor Dennis Collins Johnson has written love poetry and other joys, including plays, full-length screenplays, one acts, scenarios, scenes, short stories, short films, comedy, songs, comic songs, teleplays, and commercials. He has performed much of his own writings, and has directed many others in performance.

Mr. Johnson has been a long time student of human nature, self-expression, and, as his next poetry book is titled, the rascality of random.

He hopes that you will keep this book, a life’s work, nearby and find it to be entertaining, sagacious, and helpful as you make your way through a bruising world.

canvas: poems by James Morehead

About canvas: poems:

“James Morehead’s canvas opens itself to the poetry of everyday life, where stanzas are etched in sand, and poems end in sunset. Combining micro-narratives of Boston bullies cornering a young boy, with minute descriptions of time in quarantine, it draws us into moving tableaus of tenacious attention to what went down, what might come up, and where we might find ourselves. These are poems to be savored, re-read, kept handy for those times when only poetry will do.”
‒ W. J. T. MITCHELL, Senior Editor of Critical Inquiry and Gaylord Donnelley Distinguished Service Professor English and Art History, University of Chicago

Schematics and Assemblies of the Cosmic Heart by Gary Gautier

About Schematics and Assemblies of the Cosmic Heart:

“Schematics and Assemblies of the Cosmic Heart is poetry of collisions and connections.” A cosmic landscape with its own laws of physics, bending with the impact and force of human passion and imagination. The poems are at once personal and archetypal, full of human feeling and emotion, rich in the joy and sadness of human connection, but all the while connecting to something abstract and eternal. The focus may settle on a brittle image, domestic or mythical, or on a transitory feeling that unexpectedly opens into a transcendental vista and then, perhaps, closes again. Each poem is tightly sculpted and easily read, but in a way that keeps readers reaching, connecting the dots in their own cosmic lives.

The Cry Of Our Children by Ruth Garnes

About The Cry Of Our Children:

“The Cry of Our Children”, is a collection of poems crafted as I battled and faced desperate trials. I refused to accept illness, abandonment, indifference or grief as the writer of my destiny; instead I channeled every horrifying event and crafted beautiful poems and lyrics. They’re not only of my own struggles, but of universal subjects like love, hope and triumph. Some poems are of the struggles that I have seen and are of other people; pain inflicted at times by others, people degrading and misusing people. I recognized that huge change could result from healthy involvements. In the depths of my own despair, I have learned to see other people’s pain and my own, more potently. I have written them as poems in a manner that will give my readers a glimpse of the myriad of experiences of my life.

ANIMAL by Dr. Munish Batra

About ANIMAL:

ANIMAL tells the story of two grisly murders, committed at a meatpacking plant by a person wearing a cow mask, not long after the CEO of a water park is brutally killed by someone wearing an orca mask. Interpol Agent Chang believes these are the latest acts of a ruthless serial killer he has been chasing for more than twenty years; a killer who targets those who harm innocent animals – elephant poachers in Chad, Russian big-game hunters of endangered species, dog fighters, European food execs who gorge ducks to make paté, gorilla hunters in the Congo, or ivory merchants in China. Working with two California detectives, Chang races to unmask the killer as their spree becomes more deadly. But the killer’s motives and history are far deeper and more complex than anyone realizes, and the truth of his rampage leads Chang on a wild chase around the world.

Inkling Whispers by Francine Fallara

About Inkling Whispers:

Inkling Whispers is a collection of poems inspired by my numerous photo-walk escapades comforting my explorer’s soul. Expressing the beauty of a broken soul’s blossoming journey.

Through ‘Inkling Whispers’, I wanted to express, for my last four years, my personal growth, as illustrated through four major chapters of my life named after a compass’ cardinals. These chapters are defined counterclockwise through each cardinal:

From the North (eNd Me) where I wanted to escape the north pole of my life. Yesterday had to be locked up in the past once and for all.

To the West (Waft Me) where I drifted while healing my broken wings. Our empty sad hearts, breaking away from the heaviness of the past, yesterday is not necessarily good for today, learning to adapt from day to day.

To the South (Save Me) where I learned to press play and strut. Hanging to solidify your new anchors, standing strong, upright towards a soothing future.

To the East (nEw Me) where I dared to spread my wings rising to hopeful new beginnings. Burying your darkness, radiating your shooting stars, outgrowing your shadow.

‘Inkling Whispers’ reflects my inner growth, and how I dared to spread my wings to reveal my beautiful colorful soul to the world.

Notes From The Bonfire: Poems In The Age of Coronavirus by Matt Nagin

About Notes From The Bonfire: Poems In The Age of Coronavirus:

In March of 2020, author Matt Nagin came down with coronavirus. Most of these poems were written during the five weeks he was trying to recover. They cover a range of subjects, although the overarching theme is the dystopian suffering unleashed by this global pandemic. The book also includes photography by Andrzej Jerzy Lech and illustrations by Natasha Yearwood.

Interestingly enough, all three contributors were New York City residents at the time our home became the first U.S. epicenter, and, as result, the Big Apple is sort of the ghost in the machine, if you will, with the changes our city underwent often mirroring and compounding those within each contributor.

Notes From The Bonfire is Nagin’s third poetry collection and includes work previously published in Gravitas, The Organic Poet, and Poetry In The Time Of Coronavirus. Matt has been writing poetry for twenty-five years, particularly when in trying situations. This time was no different. Composing these poems, during his battle with this insidious virus, at the height of the first outbreak, offered Matt a unique perspective on the damage wrought by this horrific scourge.

Feast of Sapphires by Matt Nagin

About Feast of Sapphires:

Suggesting something beautiful and valuable that is painful when consumed, “Feast of Sapphires” covers topics both timely and universal. There are poems of psychic revolution (for those ready to put down the Kool-Aid), poems about pretense and gun control, poems about MRI’s, gambling, and mystical storms of all varieties; then, too, on a deeper level, more than a few of these poems are about the desire to surmount the collective facade in search of a kind of truth that cannot be hyperlinked. Located from Costa Rica to the LIRR, this metaphysical cartography of anticipation and despair is perfect for those seeking existential answers in the bottom of the tea, in the resonance of a thunder storm, or, even, in the ethereal high of a linguistic flight of fancy. From comedic monologues to existential reflections, from angry rants to insightful commentary, from wily narratives to verbal pyrotechnics, this is a book that aims to make you feel that, in these dystopian times, poetry is, more than ever, relevant and necessary.
