Homage to you, David, for you have certainly brought about 'an achieved new form' in the seventy-five sections of Shaksper. This work is surely sui generis and should get widespread recognition, if it can be approached and appreciated by editors and critics.This great poem surely is the apogee of your long and amazingly productive creative output. Congratulations and plaudits, David, this is a triumph!R. VIRGIL ELLIS[Wisconsin poet and Multi-Media Artist]Your device of Shakespeare quotations, step by step through the plays of his life, is brilliant and very effective. And daring, for you pose your own lines over and against Shakespeare’s own amazing lines. Shakespeare, of course,comes off very well-what astonishingly wonderful passages these familiar excerpts are. But, astonishingly, so does Swartz, Shakespeare’s elaborator.ALLAN BRICK[Quaker activist]The poem is a dramatic monologue which attempts to convey the mind of our greatest dramatist. It is HIS soliloquy. It is the soliloquy of Shakespeare in our century. 3

    The ambiguously titled Love Bites is the debut offering from K D Halliwell, a Milton Keynes based author who describes the collection as a document of her twenties. Original and with a format that stands out from the ordinary, it is proving particularly well-received by those who “don’t normally like poetry”. Originally written by hand, the author has traversed a fine line betw...

  • Polishing the Silver
    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. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....

  • Rothko
    david swartz
    'Rothko,' the title long-poem of this slim volume, is an attempt to crystallize 20 texts on a very elusive major 'abstract expressionist' (a designation of which the artist himself derived scant satisfaction) into a dramatic monologue in a wholly new verse form, 33 sections of 6 couplets of nearly identical length lines, each section preceded by a brief haiku-like quotation fro...

  • Pieta`
    david swartz
    Pieta`: Song of the Blessed Virgin is the culminating volume of a master poet, who has charted his own truth and passage through the thicket of lesser work, of a host of contemporaries with limited pith and vision, venal ambition, a dogged tendency to measure themselves against peers and seldom the truly great. Witness here some sample rejections: 'Your work has great power an...

  • Triptych

    Triptych begins with 3 quasi-Biblical dramatic poems, all dark, all convincing, an atavistic testimony to the harshness of an ancient Creator who exacts horror from his children, an unsettling tribute few will recognize from their childhood instruction, if any, in the ways of the elder Testament. The Daughter of Jephthah is the 1st, a fleshing out of the story of a man who trad...

  • DREAMSONGS and other songs
    david swartz
    'Dreamsongs' borrows no more from J. Berryman than an excellent title, for the gist of the introductory poems is likely (luckily) indeterminate, alternating in fierce dialectic between (and among) the wildest scatology and the most sensitive and lyrical paean to human nostalgia and regret.The poet in this first section flexes imagination in service of the widest range of public...
