Never before has the human race needed the power of the mind and much more clarity about what is taking place on the world’s stage today than this present time. With so many biases leading to extreme polarization, one finds him or herself enticed to enter the boxing ring without due diligence. Social media and globalization, instead of providing a level playing field, added more fuel to the fire. Even 'learned' individuals have adopted a defensive and reactive approach instead of a conducive and proactive approach.In this collection, the readers will find no specific themes. The pieces were written in real time as events were unfolding, thus being listed in a chronological order by date.While most of these reflections were written in the last couple of years, the thought process encompassed prior experiences that were triggered by recent events.

    Jennifer Chrystie
    ‘There’s a touch of both Dickinson and Larkin in Jennifer Chrystie’s mature exhumation of the tales and tropes of family. Figures who could so easily flit like phantoms in her well honed poetry are palpably enjoying an after-life in the poet’s ability to redeem through deep understanding. The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. 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....
