Bowlfuls of Blue
by McIntosh, Alexandra       
(Paperback - English - 9781954573048)
A longing for wonder and communion with the natural world can be felt throughout the pages of Alexandra McIntosh's debut poetry collection, Bowlfuls of Blue. McIntosh's work, like that of Wendell Berry, J.R. Tolkien, Mary Oliver, and Annie Dillard, shares a conviction that a writer's sense of place nurtures the humanity and authority of their work. That, ironically, attention to what is at hand lengthens an artist's reach. While novels and lyrical prose awakened McIntosh's affinity for grounded literature, the poetics of Coleridge, Donne, and Bishop revealed to her poetry's unique power to freshen one's vision of the familiar, particularly Northern Kentucky's O ..

The Weight of Clouds
by Cain, Cathy       
(Paperback - English - 9781956285192)
strong The Weight of Clouds strong is an intimate celebration of how our spirit is surprised and enlarged at the moment of perception, when the weight of reality is balanced by that of our imagination. Cathy Cain's strong strong words, phrases, and images dissipate, then reemerge like shifting cloud formations. She observes the openings where mystery flows through us like a luminous current. Even as Cain quietly addresses the impermanence of our bodies, she focuses on the amazement, strong strong the near impossibility, of our existence and the wonder of love. Her poems are a reflection on how we create the beauty that we need to survive. ..

Lying in: Poems
by Metzger, Elizabeth       
(Paperback - English - 9781639550104)
A devastating, vulnerable collection tracing high-risk pregnancy and new motherhood amid grief. "All my life all I've wanted was to be myself and someone else," writes Elizabeth Metzger. From the shadowy perspective of confinement, where the presence of death unsettles all outcomes, these poems examine an expansion and fracturing of the self--into motherhood as well as childhood, into past selves and future unknowns. The child becomes parent, the parent becomes child, the child arrives but in doing so is lost. New loss haunts new life, and life becomes "one or two lives." The door is more valuable than the prize behind it. br With ambivalence as well as dee ..

Meltwater: Poems
by Wahmanholm, Claire       
(Paperback - English - 9781639551019)
A haunting collection that inhabits a disquieting future where fear is the governing body, "the organ and the tissue and the cell, the membrane and the organelle." "Once there were oarfish, opaleyes, olive flounders. Once the oxbows were not overrun with nitrogen." Part requiem, part bedtime story, Meltwater narrates the awful possibility of doom as well as the grim temptation to numb ourselves to it. Prose poems melt into erasures, erasures swell into lush catalogs. Within this formal ebb and flow, Claire Wahmanholm explores both abundance and annihilation, giving shape and music to our shared human anxieties. What does it mean to bring children into a wor ..

Marlys West
by West, Marlys    Bell, Jessica   
(Paperback - English - 9781733048873)
The Vital Function of Constant Narrative is a collection of poems that acts as both memoir and mystery. Each poem is a short meditation on what it means to make up a sense of self. Our roles, our world, and our personal histories create much of who we are and what we think of as our story. These poems expose reality in all of its multicolored arrays, weaving together adulthood and childhood, hospital and home, birds and flowers, blood and bones. The book is at once light and dense, profound and playful. ..

With a Full Heart: Verses to Ignite Your Faith and Feed Your Soul
by Stradley, Walker       
(Paperback - English - 9798985770438)
Simple in their imagery yet raw and thought-provoking, these heart-centered verses were both a vehicle for Walker Stradley's healing and a testament to his love for his wife, two- and four-legged family members, friends, and life itself. The alchemic power of nature also plays a central role, grounding him and helping him make the most of each precious day as he continues his never-ending search for all things good. Other verses are a testament to our great nation and his wish that people will set aside the division of recent years and reunite around our commitment to freedom and inclusivity. Though each has its own inspirational message, read together these poe ..

by Fonce, Dom       
(Paperback - English - 9798888380116)
The opioid epidemic has hit a small Ohio town hard. While living with his grandparents, a young boy navigates abuse and neglect through a latchkey childhood. Through the use of free verse and sonnets, the boy's coming of age story is explored-fantasical creatures like pixies and the Grassman are imagined by the boy while the drama of an addicted grandfather and bedridden grandmother plays in the background. As the boy deals with constant anger from his grandfather, he discovers escapism and freedom in a rural, Rust Belt landscape, using the woods as a shield from an abusive home. ..

The Baby and the Seed: A Primer on Good Parenting a Book for the Entire Family
by Beamer, Leland    Charlton, Kirk    Lanquist, Paul
(Hardcover - English - 9781643145730)
This is a book for everyone. In using the metaphor comparing the raising of the seed of wheat with that of a baby, the importance of a nurturing environment is presented. Using a poem for structure, accompanied by colorful illustrations that convey the message in each stanza, we can better understand the significance of a good start in life. Knowing that 90% of the brain develops in the months of pregnancy and the first two years of life and that most chronic medical, behavioral, and addiction disorders occur in adults who had dysfunction in this critical period, makes it imperative that every effort be made to educate us all on the importance of good, responsiv ..

Cut to Bloom
by Wild, Arhm Choi

What does it take to unlearn the survival instinct of trauma? What does it take to choose our tools instead of wearing down the ones we've been handed? In Cut to Bloom, Arhm Choi Wild attempts to forge answers to these questions by navigating the hyphen, sometimes chasm, between the Asian and American identity, between queerness and the politics of belonging, between survival and the possibility of choice. br br While talking back to the colonialism of strict poetic form, this book attempts to disrupt clear definitions and redefine the American identity as one that is constructed more by questions than answers. This book celebrates the self-made, rogue bou ..
