Abrir el corazón, dejar que se desangre, así entiende Alberto Villarreal la poesía y, en este nuevo libro, rompe con todo lo que nos enseñaron sobre ocultar lo que sentimos y esconder el amor que no encaja en lo que otros esperan. Cada poema de Te daré el olvido habla sin filtros sobre nombrar lo que duele y amar con valentía, sin miedo. Es un testimonio sobre lo difícil que es olvidar a las personas que hemos amado, y cómo su ausencia se vuelve un eco constante en el cuerpo.

A poem about the cubist painter of the last Century (20th). He was a surrealist artist, and in his earlier works painted in the neoclassical. Born in Spain, he escaped Franco's regime by being in exile in France. Some of his cubist art may have been influenced by his knowledge of the atrocities committed during the Spanish Civil war, especially in his Masterpiece Guernica. A lot of his Art is treasured Worldwide, and many of his paintings fetch huge sums at auction.

With propulsive, intimate stylings and an eye toward Black liberations, pop culture, sports, and familial fractures, Wires that Sputter meets the world with the posture of a portraitist and the deftness of a poet-as-acrobat, as seeker. Here in these wondrous poems is an attentiveness toward that which harrows as well as that which heals, toward the power of space-giving and fragmentation. Rupture and recovery, tribute and tribulation, a revivifying musicality, and room to breathe—all dapple within, where electricity manifests in every line.

I have defied my silence and shared my melanated story with eye-opening audacity.

These poems are a reflection of some of the thoughts that crossed my mind in my mid 30s. They changed as I was changing and growing. Some of the poems are an appreciation of beauty, some are an internal dialogue, some are an advice to myself, some have an inherent rhythm and tune to them, you can sing them as songs and dance to their tune, some are stray thoughts and profound truths, capturing eternal wisdom. I enjoyed them and that's the reason I wanted to share with kindred spirits. If your heart resonates with any poem, it is a divine accident.

Words are so important in our lives. The words we speak to others, or the words spoken to us are powerful tools that can chart the path we travel. This is true of both positive and negative words. Words can bow us down or lift us up. Our words are a product of our thinking and a consequence of how we see ourselves and how we engage the world around us. This book of poetry is a collection of fourteen poems designed to change our thinking and the words we speak to ourselves and to others. It is my hope that this book of poetry speaks to you in a unique and compelling way.

Firefall, by Heather Lang-Cassera, whispers to us the urgency of climate change. In hushed tones, lyrical free verse and cyclical pantoums evoke the diminishing and intensifying seasons. We might look for comfort in the occasional rhyming couplets, in the evocative syntax, in the breathtaking imagery that portrays the beauty of this world, yet these ecopoems require us to parse out seeming dualities: fire and flood, repetition and redundancy, vulnerable witness and autonomous self.
