Throughout our lives, we experience two types of relationships.The "moments" and the "lifetimes." The ones who are moments are meant to teach us about strength and heartbreak. They are meant to give us perspective into what our souls really need in a partner. They break you down, but only temporarily until you realize the why behind them coming into your life, even if just for a short period of time. The ones who are a lifetime are special. These are the relationships that stick with you forever. Whether it works out or not, these are the people who stay in your life because the universe has put them there for a reason. They are the ones whose impact on you will last a lifetime. This collection of poetry is a tribute to the "moments" and "lifetimes" I have encountered over the last few years of my life.

This is an opinionated book that focuses on issues we tend to overlook to look a certain way towards others. In doing this we ultimately end up losing sight of who we are and slowly begin to lose grip of our purpose. Why do we act a certain way? How did we get to this point? Why do we continuously hold onto things we should let go of? Reflection is key, and this book challenges everyone to look inside themselves, pull back the mask, and have/develop transparency. Self-less Self, are you ready to peel back the onion called life and experiences? Let's get honest
Insinuación del olvido: memoria desmemoria y permanencia. Recibimos con agrado a este nuevo hijo de nuestro poeta José Espinal Marcelo: En él nos trae un universo poético totalizante, con visión de la naturaleza entera, preocupación por el ser en su dimensión social, atravesado de manera transversal por vivencias de amor y desamor en todas sus acepciones: ternura, caricia, belleza, y la mujer reconstruida por momentos que el poeta no puede olvidar en medio de la lucha consigo mismo entre el recuerdo y el olvido. Por ello, nos insinúa que olvida cuando en el inconsciente permanece el olor a lluvia, la piel de mujer y a sorbo de café, como reza: "en una taza de café tinto tu nombre de aventura" El poeta se construye y reconstruye a cada instante con enmohecidas sensaciones que lo hacen nacer y morir en un mar de angustia, dolor y esperanza que empieza desde su propio origen y lo acompaña desde y para siempre, como canta: "perdà la memoria en tu recuerdoolvidé quién eres no sé quién soy olvidé todo de tanto recordar" "Aun negando el tiempome enferman tus recuerdos" El autor logra con destreza la combinación de estrofas y versos obteniendo la construcción de sonetos que expresan su amor patrio, su lealtad ante la amistad y el sentido de la muerte: "llueve sudor cercado con alambreobrero yacimiento de riqueza" "Ambiciosa fue la muerte al tocarteque exceptúa entre nosotros tu cuerpo solo en los recuerdos podré recordarte" Desde Olvido existencial, hijo precedente de Espinal a esta nueva propuesta, existe un hilo conductor marcado por la lucha interna entre olvidar y permanecer. El poeta recorre un camino de continuidad y discontinuidad que se caracteriza por el juego erótico entre la memoria y la desmemoria; como escribe en: Renuncio a ti. "Te negaré en tu ausencia negaré lo que hicimos ...pero si algún dÃano nos persiguen los celos puede que no todo sea olvidoatrévete a regresar desnuda que mi renuncia es sorda y muda" El Poeta nos pregunta a todos ¿Quiénes somos?, mientras se hunde en la parte más interna de su ser, cuando escribe: Yo¿Quién soy?sólo una preguntaque deambula en la nadaausente de absurda respuesta Tú¿Quién eres?La respuesta inesperadade los deseos no confesadosdel último verano Ãl¿Quién es?El deseo que guardasen el silencio de tu piel Nosotrosel vicio de los deseosincansable rutina de tu boca plural. El Poeta aprovecha toda la riqueza que le ofrece el universo de figuras literarias. Y juega con todas al mismo tiempo en una ligera construcción poética que permite la apertura del texto a todos los públicos de lectores. Ellos tendrán la oportunidad de abrevar en esta criatura, salida de las entrañas de un hijo de Villa Bisonó, de Navarrete. Ella, contiene su infancia, mezclada con sus vivencias en el rebelde San Francisco de MacorÃs, trascendiendo a todo el paÃs, contexto que circunda su mundo poético. Sixto GabÃn

Two people, inspired by the rugged outback of the urban sprawl coincide in this fusion of minds. This poetry has been described by the pillars of our society as outstanding, loquacious, and rambling nonsense. When Leo stood on the bow of the titanic, he stated: "I can't wait to read this book while sipping a mocha cappuccino." Not only have the authors, renowned in their field, published many series of books including "trees" and "IIIIIIIII", but together they create something truly pleasing to the senses. This book smells just like a book. This book is an experience of the calloused man in a modernizing world, struggling to come to terms with a daunting new reality that he does not understand. Take this journey with us and multiply your senses.
A contemplative poetry and prose collection dealing with subjects of the relationship between man and nature, the inner and outer cosmos.

In her fifth poetry book Abigail Jewell finds words for the intersections of hope, love, healing, feminism, consumerism, sustainability, and more. An amalgamation of inner conversations and the questioning that comes as one relearns. Sounds of her playful, but deeply personal, existential angst sound like: "I land here heavily. Pretending I didn't know it was coming. How is it that every yearI grow evermore dissatisfied With the systems that surrounded me. ..."and "None of us get freeUntil all of us get freeI'm beginning to seeHow in my lifetimeI'll never win, We'll never arrive To that society without sin. I'll just keep gettingBotox advertisementsTill the day I die, Shamed for growing olderShamed for 'letting myself go.'"The perfect companion for a hard hitting, yet hopeful, bemusement of the shit-shows of life.

Editor's Note Linked Verse, Issue 002 breaks open on the shore of a new year. In the process of constant beginnings and endless returns, human consciousness remains the interstitial point at which madness touches reality, despite progress's relative acceleration, stagnation, deceleration. The moon pulls tides. Light requires form to cast a shadow. At the outset, a wave is a thing and an act. Like poetry and painting, there is a principle of similarity, made and unmade by expression. The wave is a threshold between construction and deconstruction, calm and chaos, the making and unmaking of the world. Is the gesture a 'hello' or 'goodbye?' Depiction/painting, and portrayal/poetry are modulated across the sixty-plus pages of this issue. We at Laughing Ronin Press encourage the reader to measure the degree and the nature of kinship between our timeless sisters, Painting and Poetry. Even before Horace laid down his Ars Poetica in c. 19 BC, Simonides of Keos famously uttered "Poema pictura loquens, pictura poema silens" (poetry is a speaking picture, painting a silent [mute] poetry). Poems, imaginative texts, are latent things until they are activated by a reader's attentive exposition (interpreting, seeing). A poem is a picture that begs to be read. Waves swell and break, trees fall in forests, regardless of witness, again and again and so on... Poets and painters give time and edge to living as constant becoming. Twenty-eight contributors flood Linked Verse, Issue 002 to form a handbook for the imitation of nature. Welcome to a new year, a new issue, a devotional gesture surfing the tidal streams of Horace's famous analogy Ut pictura poesis, "as is painting so is poetry." Chelsea Rector

Observará el lector que el hilo conductor de todos los poemas en verso y en prosa que ahora se presentan al público y que permite reunirlos en el presente poemario, es el canto a la mujer libre y soberana, con carácter, clase y estilo, alejada de las vulgares, más que solamente poco elegantes, estridencias del actual feminismo; la loa a la libertad y a la fuerza del espÃritu y, si encuentra el lector algún poema, que lo hay, próximo a la pura emotividad, éste estará tan cercano al sentimiento profundo del alma humana como alejado de esa sensibilidad débil y meliflua de un amor romántico y adolescente, porque los poemas de Laura Redondo, no están exentos de sensibilidad, emoción y romanticismo, pero ese romanticismo del que adolece la autora, solo puede ser, como es su inspiración, un romanticismo de acero.
