Poetry X Harmony Collection 1

by Percy Hsu

the first collection of poems by poetryxharmony.

Matters of the Heart is a collection of poetry about the inevitable nature of falling, and all the motions that it entails; innocent longing leading to learning, but never enough to avoid falling again. This chapbook aims to be a sincere depiction of what it means to fall, with the good and the not so good, with poems being emblems for truths once lived, even if it's in imagination. The poems came about when seeking beautiful moments that no longer are, turned into words to be found again when ... more

Exits

by Stephen C. Pollock

A recipient of the Rolfe Humphries Poetry Prize, Stephen C. Pollock’s debut collection nods to the literary tradition of years past while simultaneously speaking to the present moment. Multilayered and musical, the poems in Pollock’s “Exits” have drawn comparisons to the work of Eavan Boland and Seamus Heaney. With bold imagery, attention to form, and a consistent throughline rooted in the theme of mortality, his collection responds to contemporary anxieties surrounding death and decay and the u... more

Family Treasons

by JL Huffman

FAMILY TREASONS is a treatise on the perils of abuse, whether physical, emotional, or sexual, at the hands of a parent, a spouse, or another relative, a one-time event, or an ongoing trial. These events are often publicly labeled as shameless, nameless, and blameless. While those who perpetrated such evils are not guileless, they certainly dealt with their own demons. This is not to exonerate them but as a recognition of the complex cycle of abuse.

Almanac: The Four Seasons

by JL Huffman

Nature predominates the scene; an occasional human pops in to enjoy the view. Join the author on a jaunt through seasonal wonderlands filled with flora and fauna: winter, spring, summer and fall.

On the Making of a Bitch & Other Siren Songs

by Senai Asar

Part of the story of the bitch is embedded in the story of the siren. Interpretations and definitions of what they both are generally stem from one root cause-- a male-dominated society’s attempt to malign women who do not follow societal mores designed to constrict female sexuality. Given this common source and origin, it is not difficult to imagine so-called bitches singing along with their mythical siren sisters of their shared experiences, their shared stories. In this poetry collection,... more

The Ballad of Lady Vigilance

by Alexej Savreux

Crystal Reflection

by Belinda LaForce

Crystal Reflection represents the author’s passion for the expression of deep feelings, releasing thoughts that were previously kept unrevealed and silent through written words on a page. Each poem describes in some way how life can take a toll on our spirit and sanity, especially when we are not honest with ourselves and others about who we truly are as a person and smother our desires and dreams, not allowing ourselves to experience the life we are meant to have and feeling the freedom to achi... more

From the abyss…Into the ether…

by Anusha Akella

About the book... Writing, for me has always been something extremely comforting and cathartic. Poetry is all about perception and perspective; And in this little collection, you might find some dark, some emotional and some possibly even heartening poetry.

I have also shared some of my artwork in this book-I don't claim to be a great artist, but art has been my beacon of hope in trying times. It is what I fall ... more
