Popcorn Press has a new poetry chapbook out, titled Sundown on this Town, by Jessica A. Gleason.
It’s an irreverent collection, somewhat in the tradition of Charles Bukowski. When the manuscript arrived, the very first poem, “These Poems Are Potentially Offensive” made me laugh out loud with its delightful word play.…
These Poems Are
Potentially Offensive
So, if your eyes are delicate,
read about sailboats. So stern
and solid, made of aged wood.
So different from the strong
rigidity of a feisty ignorant boner.
And the rest of the collection is every bit as skillful in its badinage, as in its Bukowski-like honesty. I’m thrilled to have it included in the Popcorn Press catalog.
