Poetry. Paper, Perfect Bound. 40 pages - 2024, ISBN: 978-1-952781-22-3 - $ 15.16 + S&H <<< SPECIAL ADVANCE ORDER DISCOUNT - For over sixty years, David Michael Nixon has worked and played at poetry. He has had six collections published, four small, two full-length. David's work has been mostly as a self-employed housecleaner, yardworker, artists' model, poet, and singer. By reading and hearing many poets, writing and performing his own poems, and being part of poetry, music, and peace communities, he has developed his art. "A Wolf Comes to My Window" collects some of his tiny poems, each three lines or less. A rabid badger, black castanets, the aardvark dark, when dandelions roar--see how these poems become small worlds.…
Poetry. 84 pages, 2022, $19.95 + S&H -- Nancy Takacs is a poet in love with places, desert areas once home to ancient seas in the Colorado Plateau in Utah, and bodies of water, like Lake Superior, and the ocean she knew as a child growing up in New Jersey. These are personal poems with sensuous images that link the past and the present with a variety of tastes, smells, and textures. This collection surprises, wakes us up, and at times, soothes us. It includes poems that find strength in women’s relationships, that express the need to keep women’s voices strong and resonant. Also concerned with drought and its effects on animals, plants, and humans in this time of climate change, species extinction, and political upheaval, these poems breathe compassion for the dire situations in our world, and our own desire for wildness, wilderness, questioning our human-centered lens. Deeply connected to the natural world, both in Utah where she lives full time, and in Wisconsin near Lake Superior, where Takacs spends summers, these poems voice a need to protect and nurture, within and without, all of our fragile landscapes.…
