A poet often writes about the world around him/her or the world within. This is where the inspiration comes from, where his/her perspective and imagination are colored. When a dog or two, (or three or four), enters a poet’s life, either by choice or by accident, they tend to sneak into the poet’s poems, either as the subject or part of the landscape of the poem, like a bark in the distance or a low howl at your feet begging for a bone. For Ronald j Palmer, these are those poems. Dogged is a tender celebration of the bond between human and dog, an elegant lament to nature, time, and ...

In the early 1960s, the Hungry Generation revitalized Bengali poetry in Calcutta, liberating it from the fetters of scholarship and the fog of punditry and freeing it to explore new forms, language, and subjects. Shakti Chattopadhyay was a cofounder of the movement, and his poems remain vibrant and surprising more than a half century later. In his ‘urban pastoral’ lines, we encounter street colloquialisms alongside high diction, a combination that at the time was unprecedented.

Sometimes one finds oneself in a place they've never seen before. In one instance, mine, it was a place I'd never even contemplated as existing. It was simply a somewhere out there, for others in need. Then it was mine. A short time later it was gone from my life. So short a stay yet the journey there was long, as is the journey back. These poems began in this place of change. They continue onward on a little notepad I was given by someone most kind. These are the first of my private ponderings to see publication. As well, of course, as the never-ending supply of kitty pictures. My little ...

Down the path of lonely life, the rainbow comes into view. The pot of gold laments poor souls, oh so cursed few. They who walk in drops of rain never can stay dry. What's above is underneath. To them, the sky is not so shy. Ages past, eyes are lost. Without friends we cease to be. Who calls my name when I'm afraid? Surely, it must be me. The Summer ends and Winter calls, the cold has a mighty grip. The warmth of seasons bitter end, comes with one great big slip. Kendrick Sims September 2024
