I am going to be completely honest about how I came up with this piece of work. I managed a warehouse that sold bags of rags. Two months in, my ’boss’ tells me that I should be cutting open one bag a shipment to see if the rags were cut right. Even though I knew she was just trying to create more work for me I cut open a bag anyway. The first and only bag I ever had to ’check’ had inside of it a small pack of 5'x3 1/2' pink paper tied with a pink bow. It seemed surreal to me so I threw it into my desk drawer. The next day at work I thought of something intriguing and decided to write it down. Opening my desk, I realized what the pink paper was for. Eventually I ran out of the little pieces of pink paper but I continued to think of things worth writing about, so I continued to write them down. I had so much written down on paper it became hard to take care of, so I typed them up. Then there were times when I felt lost and confused so I would read them and feel better, editing them as I went. Feeling confident with what I had written, I was compelled to share it with anyone who was willing to see the world from a strange perspective. I hope you enjoy!

    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.
