Map of a Distorted Mind by Joseph R. McNulty

In Map of a Distorted Mind by Joseph R. McNulty is a man expression of grief of a love lost. It talks about the day he fell in love with her and the day she died. I felt every emotion that this man felt in every poem in this book. Mr. McNulty showed the world exactly how he felt and at times did. I applaud him in being so open honest.
Every poem had a flow and consistency to it. At parts I thought it would make a great song because the way it flowed. I must admit my personal favorite is The Great Sardine Ride where he moves to be closer to the one he loves. I have done that and know firsthand how the pull of love will make you do anything. Those of us that love poetry that comes straight from the heart will love this book.

Too Much Ado by Tony Angelo

Tony Angelo describes 'Too much Ado’ “as a poetry book that tackles some of the major prejudices…” and he is spot on about them introducing thoughts to the reader that provokes some thoughts about said “prejudices”. It is a very interested style of poetry and it can hold a reader’s attention. Each poem speaks to us, the readers, to take to heart the author’s ideas and thoughts about the subject to which it is written.

Thought compelling reads tend to mark the author’s stories within the poems. I prefer poetry that tells a story instead of a poem with rhythym and rhyme that can make no sense at all. We see the “story-lines” as life experiences and lessons learned in this reviewer/author’s opinion.

Sculpting the Heart:While Conversing with the Masters by Joyce White

Sculpting the Heart’s: While Conversing with the Masters by Joyce White is a good book that shows us how paintings and Art can be poetry together. At times I felt like I could feel everything she felt and at times I felt lost trying to decipher what she was saying. My favorite one is called Crystalline Clear.

I think the people that love in-depth poetry would love to read such a personal book.
