Book Description
Poets in this issue: David Allen, Susie Beiman, Mark Blickley, Kimberly Anne Bolton, Michael Brockley, Michael H. Brownstein, Dan Carpenter, K J Carter, Jan Chronister, Alice Couch, Mary Couch, Curtis L. Crisler, Kim Denning, George Fish, Daniel Godward, James Green, John D. Groppe, John R.

Roberts, Kit Rohrbach, Bonita Cox Searle, Mary Sexson, Michael E. Strosahl, Diana Thoresen, Theresa Timmons, David Vancil, Rp Verlaine, James Eric Watkins, George Wylie, and Hiromi Yoshida. These are unusual times. What has altered in your life or the lives of those around you? What angers you? What is better this year than in the past? What will never be the same going forward? Those were the questions asked of poets for this issue. The world is divided along several lines as we head into 2021. The pandemic is unlike anything experienced before. Tensions are running high between coworkers, educators and those they teach, neighbors, and even lifelong friends and family members. Relationships are dissolving Left and Right. The masked and unmasked glare at each other. The air we breathe and the surfaces we touch and the people we love are all potential killers. It's a plexiglass world, muffled and fogged. Family dynamics have shifted dramatically. And that which seems to be salvation-the vaccines-may not end social distancing for a very long time to come. We communicate via screens and signs and tears of longing and frustration. This will undoubtedly be the start and end of too many things. There is likely no one who doesn't know someone who was infected by the coronavirus-or killed by it. Poetry can't solve the toughest problems of society, but maybe it can offer a new perspective on them. There are off-topic poems herein, as well. Touching and funny, surprising and philosophical-they offer the chance to take a break from the stresses and strains eating into every aspect of our daily lives.

Book Description
The dictionary is an excellent resource, but sometimes the very proper words in the dictionary aren't the ones you need to precisely describe a person, place, thing, or emotion. Edward Gorey and Lewis Carroll never needed to explain their nonsense words-either they were understood or not, but a sense of them tickled the surrounding lines and gave their writing a new color and flavor. Readers may not understand every undictionary entry in this issue, but they may quite like the poems' textures as you chew. Poets in this issue: David Allen, Lois Baer Barr, James Bowden, Jonathan Bracker, James Bradley, Jerry Bradley, Michael Brockley, Michael H. Brownstein, Dan Carpenter, Lucas Carpenter, Alys Caviness-Gober, Jan Chronister, Kathryn Dohrmann, Bruce Ducker, Katey Funderburgh, Daniel Godward, James Green, John D. Groppe, Gary D. Grossman, Helmut Haberkamm, Cynthia T. Hahn, Danielle Hanson, Karen Head, Tim Heerdink, John R. Hinton, Peter Huggins, Joseph Hutchison, Colin James, David James, Marc Janssen, Michael Lee Johnson, Arnold Johnston, Patrick Kalahar, Chuck Kellum, Norbert Krapf, Lylanne Musselman, Noble Poets, Levi Noe, Noreen Oesterlein, Deborah Ann Percy, Teresa Pruitt, Carlos Reyes, Warren Sidwell, M.

Poets in this issue: David Allen, Shalom Galve Aranas, Michael Brockley, Michael Brownstein, John Cardwell, Dan Carpenter, K J Carter, W. B. Cornwell, Mary A. Couch, Dick Dalton, George Fish, James Green, John D. Groppe, Lois Hambleton, John Hinton, Liza Hyatt, LeAnn Jones, Jordan Krais, Oliver Lake, Jim Landwehr, Lucy J. Madison, Tracy Mishkin, Donna Monday, Guna Moran, Lylanne Musselman, Thomas Alan Orr, Bruce Reed, Mary Sexson, Michael Strosahl, David Vancil, Rp Verlaine, J.E.A. Wallace, Michael T. Young, and Joyce Zephyrin. Illustrations are by Bre A. Domescik.Each of these poems has a backstory, a side note, previously unrevealed truths, or specifics about their inspiration. I've always loved discovering the pain, joy, loss, love, drama, or unusual experience that went into creating works of art: paintings, songs, novels, and poetry. I asked contributors to let readers look behind the curtain for this issue, and the results are magnificent. Poets are, by nature, brave. Shards of their souls are on display with each piece of writing. With these postscripts, we are allowed to see even deeper into their hearts.
