Doom and Gloom is a little spook, and a little sad, a little wondrous, and a little weird. Perfect for those who enjoy the melancholy of a rainy day, or exploring old cemeteries while visiting a new town.You will find no gore here, because the most effective horror is not blood and guts. Instead, the most effective horror is infused with a sadness that can't be helped, combined with a sense of wonder and dread about what lurks just beyond view.

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Here, again, is a chance to acclaim a Calendrier Saison in poetic verse. Within is a treatise regarding the merits of the season the artist calls "Sacred Summer." A testament to the value of seeing the Summer season sacred through the lens of a rhyming poet. Again, mullers are invited into quiet, reflective contemplations of the Summer's ever-warming gifts. These warmer months' highlights are revered through kind and considerate illustration constructions, for this is truly a sacred season.

WHO IS SABRINA?She's the most beautiful & brilliant woman in the world. She is self-proclaimed not perfect but she's perfect for me. I'm not perfect either so we can be perfectly imperfect together. We both have our strengths & weaknesses, and she's my best friend & partner! I love her so so much!Sabrina is the final mile sprint in your own private marathon.Sabrina is that extra sit-up when your abdominal muscles are burning in pain.Sabrina is that last bench press rep when your arms are shaking.Sabrina is the last 30 seconds of a plank before you fall over.Sabrina is the delicious collie flower rice & spinach green salad for lunch. Sabrina is my heart, my inspiration, my love! The best partner in the world!

in march 2020, we decided that we would each write one poem a day for every day in april 2020 in honour of national poetry month.you may recall that period was considered the height of the lockdown in many places in north america- no one out on the streets, no one travelling to work or school. i stayed inside, along with my person and my cat, in a very tiny apartment. i worked from home. i had zoom meetings. i played scrabble with my person. (cat dislikes playing scrabble, so i knew it was pointless to ask her to join in). i banged on pots and pans every night at 7 pm in support of front-line workers who were risking their lives to keep the rest of us fed and as healthy as possible. along the way, i wrote 30 poems in 30 days. some are very obviously "covid poems". others are poems written during covid (rather than poems about covid). as i have worked on assembling this collection, i notice that all the poems have certainly impacted by the stillness, quiet, and terrifying peacefulness of those weeks. what bubbles to the surface when you coop up a poet during a pandemic? they think about things, drilling deeper ever deeper into themselves. this book contains some of the results.

John M. Bennett's LAVANDERÍA NOMBRE is pamjacked with everything we've come to expect of & enjoy in his work - an erudition, his ability with words & their placement (including a remarkable skill to break them up so they break out by themselves), a recognition & appreciation of others, his prolificacy. Plus an underlying social awareness whose presence is always there; & a humor that tends to lurk throughout but sometimes will be allowed to take center stage. I'm still cracking up over "PEPPERONI BRAIN SCAN."- Mark YoungIn his most recent book, LAVANDERÍA NOMBRE (which Bennett translates as "A Laundry Called Name"), there is a poem entitled "break fast." Why is there a space in the middle of the word "breakfast." Make a break for it, and do it fast. Put an end to your refusal to eat (to consume? to possess? to process? to ruminate?) And do it at the start of your day, as a source of nutrition. Why do I need to remove the space between before attempting to assess the available or potential meanings? Are Bennett poems always primarily about reading, in the sense that reading is often if not always primarily about thinking?- Jim Leftwich

Want to know a secret?Moms are multitudes: whole, messy, luminous, intrepid, complicated, vulnerable humans. Moms experience the gamut of thoughts, aspirations and emotions -- including getting mad."It would seem to be for children, but I'm not fussy who reads it" ( - E.B. White) . . .While arguably a children's book for its fun and engaging patter and lively adornments, "Moms Get Mad" doesn't shy from some sophisticated vocabulary (and more power to this fearless feature). What makes for such a compelling book is how it addresses more than one audience, with each cohort getting something special from it. "Mom's Get Mad" accomplishes this with humor, poignancy, and rainbow glitter unicorns.Adorned by the author's original art, jauntily combining watercolor with old school paper, scissors and glue collage (also known as kindergarten skills), "Moms Get Mad" is a creative, touching, funny, reassuring, honest ode to mothers everywhere who feel the triumph and trials of an unrelenting fact: that at the end of each day (if you're lucky), it will start all over again tomorrow (actually, today, in just a few hours. Because it's 3 a.m.).At some point, it serves the interest of both mom and children to transcend mother-child dynamics and glimpse each other's identity as multi-faceted and uniquely storied. This dimensional transformation is the subliminal and lasting gift of "Moms Get Mad."

"Is this smalltown America? A place where the air doesn't move, love is thin, beer fails nightly to do its trick, and hope rides a cloud to the edge of town, then disappears? These poems are located further east than Sherwood Anderson's Winesburg, Ohio, but they offer the same story of lives where the dramas are small, their significance large, the outcome of disappointments seemingly permanent. Here is art, here is truth, poems as portraits."-Gary Soto, Final Judge, Barry Spacks Poetry Prize"A work of great candor and lucidity, In the Cathedral of My Undoing is a gutting and deeply observed collection. Everything Ayres' eye falls on takes on a stark clarity. Her straightforward lines disguise an enormous intelligence and tonal sensitivity: a fierce capacity for finding the emotional heart of things. I admire the deep attentiveness in these poems - the frontal gazes at the pain and strangeness of our most intimate connections and losses. Here are snapshots illuminating the truths of human encounter and the naked wrongs of our world; here, too, poems of eerie simplicity and praise, pulsing with a kind of desperate sadness. These are poems of our hidden lives, reminding us of the interior paths we all travel between our betrayals and our acts of courage. A wise, vulnerable, and immensely rewarding book."-Jenny George, author of The Dream of Reason"The human need for connection-what it masks and reveals-is at the heart of Kellam Ayres' stunning debut collection. Grounded in the weighted, rooted past of rural New England and the rhythms of working life, and given expansive resonance in the intimate spaces of the speaker's retrospective present, these poems explore cycles of desire and despair, the need for and inability to change, brokenness and the effort to break free. "I can't possibly protect my heart from this world," our speakerrecognizes in the final section, but the reader is witness throughout to her evolving resilience and self-sufficiency. In the Cathedral of My Undoing is a lyric journey through what would undo us into what sustains."-Debra Allbery, author of Fimbul-Winter

The poems in The Ghost Owl Says Go Now focus on place, specifically the vast American landscape from California to Key West and points in between. Guided by the wandering spirit of Bash¿, some of the travel poems in this collection are wistful; others reflect on harsh realities experienced under the spell of wanderlust. Along the way, there are encounters with a variety of people-neighbors, relatives, strangers-that might be described as instances of synchronicity: encounters that seemingly offer significance beyond the random. Still other poems take their cues from culturalmanifestations of Americana: music, artwork, literature, film. In this collection of poems, Stephen Benz continues his probing explorations into the topographies of Americana.

Get ready for a remarkable voyage.Have you ever wondered what life would be like without love? Life is a priceless gift deliberately crafted and packaged for our enjoyment, but it is not a bed of roses.

Death reminds us we must make the most of this gift before it expires. How can we do this?Love and life are inseparable, dependent and complementary; love powers life while life makes love visible.
