Drowning in the Floating World by Meg Eden

About Drowning in the Floating World:

Drowning in the Floating World centers around the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, as well as the Fukushima powerplant disaster, exploring diverse manifestations and interpretations of water in Japanese culture and mythology. These poems not only bear testimony to the disaster, but also serve as a warning to our future selves—on not only the dangers of nature, but also the power governments and businesses hold over their people and environment.

A Tree Frog’s Eyes: Haiku by David Eric Navarro

About A Tree Frog’s Eyes: Haiku:

A definitive collection of 194 haiku that brings together a plethora of diverse natural, cultural, and geographical influences from Navarro’s life as a wandering poet-philosopher.

Navarro draws on a lifetime of learning haiku (40 years), beginning at 19 years old when he discovered its origins in the heart of ancient Chinese poetry (Sensai and Hõ Un); through the quintessential influences of the four great Japanese hokku/haiku masters, Basho, Buson, Issa, and Shiki — with emphasis on the personal pure-land nature haiku of Issa; to the classic core functional elements of kire (the cut or shift) and kigo (seasonal indication), which infuse haiku with the essential elements of zoka, ma, tathata, and toriawase, which are simply explained in an engaging Foreword. These are the core of Navarro’s haiku, seasoned occasionally with modern offshoots and adaptations. The reader will find everything from traditional English 5-7-5 haiku, to more modern renditions with fewer syllables, some gendai haiku, semantic disjunctions, and even some senryu.

While the underlying essence of his haiku is influenced and inspired by Chinese and Japanese poetry, Navarro’s haiku are thoroughly steeped in modern American nature, culture, geography, and tradition. He brings haiku to life in a way that is relatable and accessible to the modern reader while faithfully maintaining the sharp visual nature of the form.

This is as great a book for haiku poets wanting to learn more about writing haiku as it is for haiku lovers.

The Duck Theory by Cedric Scott, Jr.

About The Duck Theory:

The Duck Theory is a collection of poems that actually combines three smaller works. Each work represents a chapter. The War Within is a collection of poems which reflect the constant personal “tug of war” dynamic that the author faces. It encompasses and highlights many aspects of the author’s life, and inner most thoughts and feelings on many topics over the course of nearly a decade. “The Lost King” encompasses realistic fiction mixed with personal narrative as a means to tell one cohesive story with caveats to relatable topics and scenarios. The story is a captivating blend of more traditional/historical ideas of the understanding of the role of a King and the life of the modern man. Blood in the Water plays on the idea of navigating through a world of intricacies and depth, in search of one’s desired goal(s), much like a predatory shark following a trail of blood to reach its prey. The duo addresses aspects of life while on the path to their own metaphorical prey; success.

One Man’s Trash by Matt Chamberlain & Spreken

About One Man’s Trash:

Spreken and Matt Chamberlain were fans of each other’s work. They got talking. They saw parallels. Each thought the other an economical poet; each participated fitfully in the Medway poetry scene; each displayed fluctuating motivation. They both also recognised that fluency in expressing sadness could easily become a form of poetic self-harm. A gear change was needed and the lit-art project, An Assemblance of Judicious Heretics, showed them the way.

They noted that this exhibition and live performance event, which anonymously pairs writers and visual artists, essentially forces collaboration upon the solitary. They appreciated the fresh perspectives created when an artist interprets a mystery writer’s words. They wondered about doing this the other way round, each writing based on an image supplied by the other. And if the images – offered with no explanation – were deliberately boring, random, unspecific or grim, and their interpreter’s only remit was to see something positive in them, this would be poetically exciting.

It was decided. This is how they would emerge from the corners they’d written themselves into. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. Or hope. Or mirth. It could be all sorts of things, but for the co-authors of this book, it has been a pleasure.

Poetic Thoughts of a Rebel by Shawn Hudson

About Poetic Thoughts of a Rebel:

Poetic Thoughts of a Rebel was created to make up for the flaws that were displayed in the first edition of Shawn Hudson’s poetic debut. New artwork, new title, new poems, and a preview from the next upcoming project are all waiting inside to be seen by readers. With the current state of America looking more, and more grim by the day it’s up to writers, poets, and other creatives to not only resist against a system that’s fueled by hatred, bigotry, and ignorance but to create change. Come along for the journey as we explore issues that many can relate to, but are sometimes apprehensive to speak on.

Poetry Untamed by Katherine E Acosta

About Poetry Untamed:

Untamed Poetry has three sections of dark and light narrative poems. Dark Play is suspense, the unknown and a bit of twisted evil. Light Rise is light, bubbly, fun and at times humorous with maybe a lesson or two. Last but not least, Light Shade which is a bit calmer in nature and is neutral. These events are down to earth with a few still caught within the outreach of time.

Within these pages are stories situated within the arena of the unreal and its many faces. You try to fit the pieces together but somehow they don’t fit. No doubt you’ll be reading twice. Complications, experiences, mishaps and the pleasant all reside in such a place that is beyond this realm.

Cut Both Ways – Peaks & Valleys of a Passionate Relationship Expressed Through Poetry by P.S. Rowland

About Cut Both Ways – Peaks & Valleys of a Passionate Relationship Expressed Through Poetry:

In a relationship more often than not, both parties are not passionate people. Passionate, not necessarily in a romantic sense, but about life in general; feeling strongly about goals, interests, ideas and yes, dreams and love. Usually one is a taker, one a giver. The old adage “opposites attract”, or do they? This collection of works will delve into the life of a relationship where both individuals are extremely artistic, intense, passionate about life, and fierce about love.

“Cut Both Ways” is a living, breathing body of work that exposes true human nature. From beginning to the end, this is much more than poetry, it’s an entire lifetime of the good, the bad, the sensual, and the destructive. But above all else, this collection is certainly life.

DARK by Rich Harris

About DARK:

This collection of poetry and dark writings documents my feelings recently explored by loving, hating and wishing. Love can be an amazing thing, but it can also be the worst – and I often found myself staring back at what I thought was something good with a bitter taste in my mouth. Take a look inside and relate, pity, empathise or simply just experience another persons journey. All work produced here has been taken form my blog. Love hurts, love hates, love heals.

The World We Live In A Poetry Book On Societal Issues by Jamell Crouthers

About The World We Live In A Poetry Book On Societal Issues:

This book focuses on fictional characters that chronicle life experiences that they’ve dealt with through poetry. Each person discusses an experience that has changed and impacted them in ways they never thought of. These people only have names, race or ethnicity is not discussed because the goal is to feel, understand and relate to their experiences as human beings. Too many times in today’s society we base things off of social stigmas, race, ethnicity, social class when we are all human beings with daily struggles that no one will ever know. Life is a journey and a gift and we should cherish it with the time that we have. We also should be more open to discussing societal issues, having an open mind and respecting each other’s opinions, thoughts and feelings no matter if they’re good, bad or indifferent because at the end of the day, experiences shape who we are.

Lowering Awareness by Matt Chamberlain

About Lowering Awareness:

This is essentially a book of solace with moments of menace. It comes from a writer who attempts to lower awareness of life’s big deals and thus raise up its crumbs and celebrate its gentle breezes. One wonders if Chamberlain bullies himself for the enjoyment of the reconciliation; if so, this produces a gentle poetry which can be worn on the sleeve.

Who Will Love the Crow by Miriam Dunn

About Who Will Love the Crow:

Who Will Love the Crow is an eclectic collection of crafted poetry that spans style and format. The collection speaks about universal experiences through elevated yet elemental language. It is mature, thoughtful, restrained, and written to be savored and read aloud. The text is accompanied by stunning photographic images by photographer Olivia Ellen MacDonald.

What is Inspiration by Alan Loren

About What is Inspiration:

“What is Inspiration?” is a mini-anthology of poetry drawn from the pages of a writer’s workshop called MWW (My Word Wizard). This wonderful collection of poems will touch you in so many ways. You will journey with the authors as they share their deeply personal experiences on such subjects as love and happiness, tragedy and pain, the silly and the sublime. The workshop began as a lark, with Alan Loren offering a website of poetry covering myriad topics. The idea was to offer the community inspirational words that synched with their particular mood at any given time. As all endeavors, it took on a life of its own. More and more people began to contribute their own works, and MWW became more than just a source of sentient language. It grew into an outlet for writers to shed light on their craft. The quality of the writing ranges from those just testing the waters to fully accomplished poets. It is a true writers’ democracy in that everyone is encouraged to submit. And so began the project of compiling a representative anthology of works in the form of our first book, “What is Inspiration?” We hope you enjoy it as much as we did curing the output.
