  Step into a beautiful farewell to poetry that forms the culmination of a decades-long love affair. 
  As the powerful conclusion to a 35-year-long love affair with poetry, this poignant book compiles author Brett C Persson's farewell to haiku, echoing with a bittersweet yet beautiful send-off to a passion that helped support him through his darkest moments. 
  Weaving together timeless themes of nature, religion, joy, love, loss, death, and the key moments that shaped his life, this collection ranges over the breadth of human experience, bringing things full circle and serving as the starting point for new adventures into the world of literature. Through the minimalist and simplistic beauty of traditional Japanese haiku, this book captures passing thoughts and crystallizes them into vivid mental imagery, painting a portrait with every verse. 
  With a dash of random haikus to lighten the mood and give readers some thought-provoking ideas to reflect on, The Ending of the Path teaches us that although all good things must come to an end, they often serve as the foundation for new and exciting directions. This collection is a heartfelt book that will soothe the souls of poetry fans, offering a fresh new perspective on experiences that the greatest poets have grappled with for generations.

  A Season in Hell with Rimbaud

  In pursuit of his brother, a man traverses the fantastical and grotesque landscape of Hell, pondering their now fractured relationship. 
  The poems in Dustin Pearson’s A Season in Hell with Rimbaud form an allegorical travelogue that chronicles two brothers’ mutual descent into hell. When the older brother runs off by himself, the younger brother begins roaming Hell’s different landscapes in search of him. As he searches, the younger brother ruminates on their now fractured relationship: what brought them here? Can they find each other? Will their bonds ever be repaired? 
  In the tradition of Virgil, Dante, Milton, Swift, Shelley, Joyce, Sarte, and especially Arthur Rimbaud, Pearson leads his speakers on a speculative, epistolary journey through the nether realm inspired by Christian beliefs and tradition. Drawing on the works of French Symbolists and the literary traditions of the American South, A Season in Hell with Rimbaud guides readers through an intimate rendering of one brother’s journey to find his lost and estranged brother, perhaps recovering a part of himself in the process.

  High Style
  Louboutin stilettos
  are recognizable at a distance.
  Those shiny red soles
  tell you everything.
  When Gucci handbags
  are in a room,
  they virtually shout.
  Now, I'm not much for labels,
  but I've noticed how
  God's garments stand out.
  Take the suit, a second skin
  made of holiness—a rare fabric,
  that usually itches, at first
  until the wearer
  gets used to it;
  Beyond that,
  God's personal style
  is all about the layered look:
  the silk of compassion,
  golden threads of kindness
  woven through the vest,
  humility cinching in the waist,
  
  meekness and patience
  falling to the ankles,
  and love thickly draped
  across the shoulders.
  The clothing God designs
  is never mistaken
  for anyone's but his.
  And when we're wise enough
  to don his attire,
  we look like more
  than a million.

  Since childhood, Janice Whyne has been a words person, writing prose-filled Christmas cards, songs and poetry. She sees poetry as a means of self-expression. A conduit and a safe space for our emotions, feelings and lived experiences. She's a Londoner by birthplace, a Jamaican by birthright, and also regards Indonesia as another homeland. 
  In Conversation is a personal milestone in Janice's journey of rediscovering her creative self. Along the way, she's ventured into the world of open mics, spoken word and poetry slams; winning 1st runner-up at the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival Poetry Slam 2019 & 2022. 
  The poems in In Conversation began their lives with a word(s) exchanged in conversation or that captured her attention in something she was listening to or viewing. She regards them as articulations of the said and unsaid; with the poetic voice in them not always hers, but rather an expression of the voice(s) of others. 
  Readers have described it as unapologetic, raw, poignant, vulnerable and brave: a journey. 
  "It speaks of someone that feels and loves much for this world, the wonderful imperfect people in it, and the injustices that go on."  
  Themes of life, loss, love, protest and more are awaiting all who choose to engage in conversation with these poems. 
  Her poem 'Sitting with Amazing' is part of The Poetry Archive Now Worldview 2021 Winners collection. Other poems have been featured in ‘Coffee & Contemplation: a taste of empowerment’ (2020), Coffee People Zine, Issue 10 (2020), All My Relations, Volume 5, Talbot-Heindl (2023), ‘Her locks unveiled: poems from the Black in White poetry competition’ (2023) as well as in other online and printed mediums.
