Book review

ANTHROPOMOPHISMS by Bruce Boston ( Richardson,TX; 2012, Elektrik Milk Bath, ISBN 978-0-9828554-1-6 ) pb, $9.00

Bruce Boston seems to generate dozens of poetry series that eventually become poetry collections.  This series are poems that are portraits of alien races both on this Earth and beyond and illustrate human desires and needs/  My favorite lines is the first stanza of the poem 'Bird People'

If bird people
were the world
our lives would
span continents .
We would fly from
land to land
and wing across
the sparkling see...

Like all Boston colledcctions its well qorth the price.

Book Review

DWARF STARS 2011 ed. by Joshua Gage ( http://sf.poetry.com ), pb, $8.00.

A lot of good poems that dont take up a lot of space

On a more serious note, these are the nominees for the Dwarf Star, the Science Fiction Poetry Association's award for very short poems and yes there is no good reason why this should be merely a category of the Rhysling Awards but that is another story.

In any event the collection is well worth the price and ought to be purchased. Most of the poems appeared i in GOBLIN FRUIT, MICROCOSMS, ROADRUNNER, SCIFAIKUESS and STAR@LINE.

BOOK REVIEW OF RAPID EYE MOVEMENT BY J.F. STANLEY

RAPID EYE MOVEMENT  by J. L. Stanley ( Elyria, OH 44035 : 2012, Crisis Chronicles,420 Cleveland St., Elyra, OH 44035 ) $5.00, pb,17 pages, no ISBN.

Stanley is a prolific poet with numerous appearences both within and outside of the sf/f/h genres.This collection is an interesting mixture of poems both within and outside of the three genres.However I would say that a theme of urban despair seems to be the common element that unify them as well as the sparsness of his language.

I was especially l impressed by 'Urban Surrender '
...
Yellow Tape.
Shell casings, circled and numbered.
Sidewalk blood splattered.
Chalk outline whewre the body fell.

Though this is the first paragraph of the poem, it easily can stand alone.

The collection is recommended.

LOTS OF MARKET NOTES AND A PAT ON THE BACK

A pair of two interrealed poems, one by me and one by Mary Turzillo) will appear in her forthcoming collection ,LOVERS & KILLERS, from Dark Regions.
