Another new book of poems, Say What You Can by Elizabeth Tibbetts; now available here
This what Monica Wood says about this book.
I was unprepared for this book. Unprepared for the emotion that washed over me, the depth of empathy I felt for my fellow humans, the awe of poetry’s power. I was going to say that in this time of strife we need poetry; what I mean is, we need this poetry.
Another new book of poetry also only available on this Website right now. The latest from J.R. Solonche.
John Murphy, editor of The Lake, says this: You want wit? You want humour? You want erudition? You want them all mixed into poems? Try Solonche. You won’t be disappointed.

poems
by Judith Skillman
Skillman’s new collection explores themes of exile, nostalgia, and trauma. Artists, literary, and mythic figures who travel through these poems include Andy Warhol, Günter Grass, Iphigenia, and the Shakespearean characters Prospero and Miranda. Sub-themes include water as a symbol for PTSD. Totem animals such as deer and coyote offer analogies from nature that suffering in the organic world may transmogrify into beauty.
