Pleased to Meet You

by Romana Tarlamis

—”is a lyrical meditation on the multiplicities of life—laughter and sorrow, music and silence, movement and stasis, dream and reality—where past, present, and future collide. Romana Tarlamis’s unparalleled skills as a painter and mixed medium artist, coupled with her uniquely singular vision, are in full force in this dazzling debut…”

Vitals and Other Signs of Life

March 30, 2024 by The Poetry Box Leave a Comment

Vitals and Other Signs of Life

by David A. Goodroom

—”In these vibrant poems of identity, nostalgia, generational change, family, and American culture, Goodrum exhibits a true talent for imbuing mundane details with authenticity, layered meanings, and linguistic beauty. But Vitals and Other Signs of Life is so much more than that; it’s also brimming with deep longing, pain, and the kinds of contrasts that speak to larger human truths…”

A Bit Left of Straight Ahead

March 30, 2024 by The Poetry Box Leave a Comment

A Bit Left of Straight Ahead

by Kim Peter Kovac

is an exploration—a journey within journey—born from Kim Peter Kovac’s eclectic knowledge and his free-form imagination. The poems are inhabited by poets, painters, musicians, action figures, fairy tale characters, myths, historical persons, who venture across time and geography to places such as Andalusia, Romania, Robben Island, Sarajevo, Wadi Rum, Okinawa, and Saturn.

Kovac has created a tapestry of magical realism, time-shifts, stylistic variety, and non-linearity that is woven with interludes of humor, philosophy, whimsy, and music. His poems explore reconciliation through communion with the past; critique notions of mental health, war, and “othering” people; and cast a quirky yet truthful eye on the zeitgeist.

Journey of Trees

March 6, 2024 by The Poetry Box Leave a Comment

Journey of Trees

by Susan Landgraf

— Here we find layers of fire, family, fruition and failure.  These poems are both cautionary and celebratory. What has been felled—trees or a marriage, a dream or a body—might rise again in some other form or direction. Trees talk. If we listen, we can learn from them. And if we revere them, spend time with them, we can become more spiritually enriched.

Kansas, Reimagined

by Anara Guard

Baum’s “The Wonderful Wizard of Oz”  that in turn shows the Midwest in full-color and beauty, giving voice to familiar characters and to unexpected entities. Hidden aspects of their lives are revealed, showing Kansas as a place worthy of imagination, one that demands our attention.

Remote Control

March 6, 2024 by The Poetry Box Leave a Comment

Remote Control

by Laura Esther Sciortino

is a practice in ordinary love, both longing for and celebrating connection. Here, we may partake in reading as if a friend speaks to us directly. This friend that—despite mistakes and overreaching—invests herself with unabashed earnestness in the greenest of hope, imagination, freedom, beginner’s mind, surrender, and renewal.

Now Is What Matters

by Janet Steward

A Finalist in the The Poetry Box Chapbook Prize 2023:

Janet Steward became caregiver for her husband when memory loss joined his list of chronic conditions. This moving collection not only documents the couple’s journey, but it offers a source of insight, courage, and comfort. More than anything these poems teach us that the practice of love is a lifelong exercise, one that is rewarded with a beautiful, intimate dance for two.
