High, girl!
While I realize my penname is quite morbid, yet,
you shall find in our blogs a lotta (subliminal) moxie
which has taken this mortal sinner yeeeeers to compile:
I lay it ALL out for you, dear - neet-o, packaged, concise.

Nevertheless, wouldn’t ya love an endless eternity
of aplomBombs falling on thy indelible cranium?
An XtraXcitinXpose with no
zooillogical-expiration-date,
with an IQ much higher than K2,
and an extraordinarily, anti-establishment victory??
Here’s what the exquisite, prolific GODy sed
(with a most excellent detector of bull§ht):

“Faith, hope, and love,
the greatest of these is love -
jump into faith...
and you'll see with love”
Doesn’t matter if you don’t believe (what I write);
God believes in you.

Meet me Upstairs, girl, where the Son never goes down
from a passionate, lucrative iconoclasm where you’ll find
nonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsX…
of deluxe-HTTP [<- pi] opportunities for excitement BTW.

Do it. Do the deed, dude. Sign into the Big House.

Spring 2024 Releases

Bright-Eyed
by Sarah Sarai
Poets Wear Prada: March 1, 2024
ISBN-13: 978-1946116284
Paperback: 60 pages
List Price: $18.00 (unsigned)

Thirty-two poems recall this native New Yorker’s childhood relocation with her family to sunny California (The San Fernando Valley); growing up on the West Coast in the 1960s — as a preteen, teen, and young adult; and her responses to her new surroundings and the times. Several poems explore interracial tension and coexistence from the viewpoint of a young person whose older sister created an interracial family. The poet explores her relationships with her nephew, niece, and brother-in-law from the perspectives of both family and race. If you like the work of Diane Wakoski or James Broughton, you will enjoy the whim and wit of this book.

With Sarah Sarai’s Bright-Eyed, I’m reminded of the Miles Davis idea that music’s not the notes but the attitude of s/he who blows the notes, and this book of poems is filled with attitude. It’s a joyride through the old neighborhood informed by a vital wit that ranges from Sun Ra to Nietzsche and drops aphorisms the way Hansel and Gretel dropped crumbs — “My past doesn’t haunt me. / I haunt my past.”; “youth is a superpower”; “To have a self / That’s an art”; and on and on — reminding us, if we need reminding, that you can’t go home again, but you do anyway. — TIM TOMLINSON, author of This Is Not Happening to You; co-founder, New York Writers Workshop

Good Housekeeping
by Bruce E. Whitacre
Poets Wear Prada: April 1, 2024
ISBN-13: 978-1-946116-27-7
Paperback: 56 pages
Price: $18 (unsigned); $20 (signed)

The contradictions of privilege and want, the dynamics of gay marriage, the joy of a good cocktail — all enter the mix as these 24 poems explore home, marriage, travel, war, sensuality, tea, and, yes, housekeeping. Selected as an Editor’s Pick by BookLife Reviews, Good Housekeeping includes “The Fold Out Couch,” which was nominated for a 2024 Pushcart Prize. Some poems have appeared in The Journal of American Poetry, The Mandarin Magazine, and World Literature Today, among other places. Mainstream audiences, LGBTQA+, and readers interested in social justice or climate issues will enjoy this book. Comparative titles include Carolyn Forché’s In the Lateness of the World and Mark Wunderlich’s God of Nothingness.

“A joyful and precise exploration of the queer domestic, a long love explored in four decades of devotion and routine. By turns playful, erotic, and nostalgic, these poems map out a fully lived life, punctuated by dishes to serve and dishes to wash. Whitacre's dazzling formalism and gorgeous soundwork carry this book forward with a gentle power, like the wind in a sail.” — JASON SCHNEIDERMAN, author of Hold Me Tight

Fall 2021 Releases: Present Imperfect by Ona Gritz

Present Imperfect
by Ona Gritz
Poets Wear Prada: Fall 2021
ISBN-13: 978-1-946116-23-9
Paperback: 104 pages
List Price: $15.00

This debut essay collection by Ona Gritz, NY Times-published writer and longtime columnist for Literary Mama, reads like a blockbuster movie. There is a heroine with cerebral palsy, likeable and indefatigable. There is family conflict, romance, and true crime. Ona writes on disability, family dynamics, and the murder of her sister's family with candor and passion. A critically acclaimed essayist, two Notable mentions by Robert Atwan, The Best American Essays, a Best Life Story in Salon, among the recent accolades, Ms. Gritz has gathered some of the best of her work from the NY Times Disability series, The Rumpus, Brevity, and more for this fine and most riveting read.

[These] essays and their attentive questions contain rich textures, with many moments of humor in the midst of hope, pain, and insight. ... Gritz's approaches to storytelling are subtle and detailed, while always attentive to large-scale issues and patterns. .... As readers, we are asked to join with Gritz in her descriptions of her disability experiences: her hemispheres, in myriad aspects. I was reminded of how the well-worn question, "why can't I be like everyone else?" becomes "why should I?" Gritz's striking, relatable essays affected me deeply.

One of approximately 76 million contributing to the Graying of America, the shift in population from forever young to Immitigably gray panther, Elsasser muses on the coming of old age in his debut poetry collection, a chapbook classic, first released in 2009, yet pertinent and still most entertaining today.

In his 22nd poetry collection, Held explores, with candor and craft, the psychology of perceptual blindness: how, blinded by faith, love, innocence, ego, tradition, prejudice, self-preservation, etc., we blunder through our lives — even as we seek enlightenment; and how such inattention can sometimes work in our favor.

Blogger Jack Cooper joins the ranks of Dorothy Parker, John Donne and Confucius with his haiku-esque witticisms: “ROMEO AND JULIET, EXPLAINED / You cannot live for love” [Monday, February 11, 2013]; “WORDS FROM A STONE / Both terrible and vain / to have sought love // at a time one felt so little” [Wednesday, March 6, 2013]. No candy-coated sugar pills served here! It seems Cooper’s systematic and objective distillation of his truth serves as an inoculation from fullblown despair. At the pinnacle of disaster, even its perilous aftermath, like a magician he produces the “aha” moment for spiritual uplift and buoyant rebound.

A poet / song-writer on fatherhood — the good, the bad, and the scary — up close in the thick of it and then the birds-eye view. Smart, candid, often wickedly funny. The quirky title, strangely familiar, is a parody of Heidi Murkoff’s best-selling pregnancy guide, What to Expect when You’re Expecting.

“Phased II is a kind of love letter written in compressed forms of observation and meditation.” — Michael T. Young, American Book Review, January – April, 2018

The greatest strengths of Phased II are its continuity and its focus. It never strays far from the grip of the moon, and is therefore able to hold a grip on a reader. . . . I suggest reading it, pouring yourself a glass of wine, and then gazing at the moon encouraged by the knowledge that somewhere George Held is probably watching it too. — Benjamin Schmitt, At the Inkwell, January 27, 2017
