Naked Beside Fish locates itself firmly in the mystery of what lies between: between poetry and art, words and silence, the minutia of daily life and the infinite expansion of the cosmos. In this surreal space, inner and outer landscapes mirror and converge in surprising ways. Playfully structured around a museum exhibit, this ekphrastic chapbook takes us from art studios to camping under stars, from making mud soup at a children's museum to picking out paint colors in the kitchen. There is even an imagined art gallery translated into words, featuring paintings by Matisse, Picasso, and Chagall, as well as a "gift shop" appendix. With exquisite use of metaphor, color, and imagery, these poems pierce the heart, tunneling beneath the surface of life's canvas to name the emotions lurking beneath. The poet's background as a feminist scholar is evident here, daring to confront the challenges of solo parenting while exploring the complexities of the female body as simultaneous subject and object of a painter's gaze.

Suicide affects those left behind, precipitating a lifetime of memories and feelings borne by family and friends. The poems in INDELIBLE SHADOW by Sandra Berris capture shock, grief, anger, confusion, guilt, acceptance, and ultimately, hope. These poems weave together a tragic story and give a powerful testament to the current national teen suicide crisis.

Mother of 0 by Vanessa Ogle takes a deep dive into the dynamics of parenting and the mother/daughter relationship. The poet urges us to "remember when they tried/ to blame perceived/ flaws/ on mothers." Mothers shape us, even when "mother no longer looks the same." These poems will leave you thinking. -Leah Huete de Maines, Poet-in-Residence Emerita at Northern Kentucky University

Salvador Sánchez es poeta. Dan de ello testimonio sus palabras... palabras en las que un íntimo universo asediado de silencios, habitado de sombras, en donde la luz, al fin y al cabo, termina por filtrarse... nos abre sus puertas para que penetremos, descalza la mirada, a contemplar el gesto puro de la vida.Salvador Sánchez es poeta.Brota su emoción límpida, sin complicaciones retóricas, directa. Fresca suena su voz, cual la del agua. Y como el agua, satisface la sed del caminante fatigado... No es poesía la suya de ésa que se maquilla el rostro, se afeita y se saca del armario el traje más lujoso para salir de fiesta. No. Es recogida y pudorosa su expresión. Nada de aspavientos verbales; nada de teatrales composturas.

Ho usato la scrittura, prosa e poesia, per guardarmi allo specchio, per non rinunciare mai alla sincerità con me stesso. Non è stato banale in quel periodo fantastico dall'adolescenza alla maturità, quando siamo fragili, esposti ai venti, ma risoluti, contestatori e ricercatori. Oggi, mezzo secolo dopo, è stato bello rileggermi e continuare quel gioco di essere insieme soggetto che osserva e oggetto della stessa osservazione.La strip in testata sta a dimostrare che la poesia non può venir sempre capita, ma solo è un venir fuori di sé stesso che cerca di manifestarsi in simboli, in parole, che spesso è difficile. E ciò che viene fuori non puoi pretendere di giudicare, perché è così. Solo può servire a capire meglio chi l'ha scritto o il lettore stesso, ritrovandocisi immerso. Forse non saprei spiegare io stesso qualche cosa, ma accetto; molte non piacciono a me medesimo, ma sparso di qui o di là c'è del buono ed è bello leggere ciò che in un istante o in un'eternità hai buttato fuori dolcemente o a volte con rabbia, persino.
