Summary

In "Ireton, a Poem," Thomas Bailey embarks on a deep exploration of the historical and political nuances surrounding the tumultuous period of the English Civil War. The poem stands out for its rich imagery and emotive language, inviting readers to experience the fervor of revolutionary fervor and the moral complexities faced by its protagonists. Bailey's narrative style is characterized by a blend of lyrical expression and keen philosophical insight, reflecting his engagement with Romantic ideals while threading in historical realism. Thomas Bailey was a poet deeply influenced by the socio-political landscape of his time, as well as by the Romantic movement that sought to reconcile human passion with historical reality. His background in literature and history affords him a unique perspective on the events that shape human experience, particularly in relation to themes of justice and individual agency. This context enriches "Ireton" and underscores the author's dedication to articulating the struggles of his characters through a historically informed lens. Readers of both poetry and history will find "Ireton, a Poem" to be an invaluable addition to their collections, offering a profound interpretation of the human condition during a formative moment in British history. Bailey's masterful command of language and his ability to evoke emotion make this work essential for anyone interested in the interplay of history and poetic expression.

    Mexican Dinosaur is a poetic offering from C.L. "Rooster" Martinez and Write About Now Publishing. The collection of poems is a metamodernist take on the changing economic demographics of his San Antonio barrio, the confusion and desire to flourish within a hyphenated American identity, and the force of gravity that the push and pull of culture from both sides of a Mexican/American ethnicity has. In 2020, C.L published two previous works-A Saint for Lost Things (Alabrava Press) and As it is in Heaven (Kissing Dynamite Press), and received the San Antonio Individual Artists Project Grant in 2021.

    Freedom House is a poetry collection that explores internal, interpersonal, and systemic freedom.  
    In this debut full-length collection, KB Brookins’ formally diverse, music-influenced poetry explores transness, politics of the body, gentrification, sexual violence, climate change, masculinity, and afrofuturism while chronicling their transition and walking readers through different “rooms”. The speaker isn’t afraid to call themselves out while also bending time, displaying the terror of being Black/queer/trans in Texas, and more — all while using humor and craft.  
    What does freedom look like? What can we learn from nature and our past? How do you reintroduce yourself in a world that refuses queerness? How can we use poetry as a tool in the toolbox that helps build freedom? This collection explores those questions, and manifests a world where Black, queer, and trans people get to live.
