“My Blockchain” is representative of my latest work. It is a surrealism that addresses the limitations of certain poetic forebears who diluted this movement's capacity for more direct social critique. |

“Twilight Zone Episodic Diagnoses”
"Browning’s marvelously creative (and simply downright fun!) poetry collection swirls with the stuff of dreams, the biochemical particulars of sexuality and lust, lists of pharmaceutical concoctions, names of people the poet has 'Gone to the Movies With,' and a 'Dramatis Personae' consisting of only four players: her mother, sister, daughter, and father."

Andrew Bertaina on Courtney LeBlanc's "Her Whole Bright Life"
"I have always been attracted to visceral writing, that which cuts through or illuminates life as it is lived. Perhaps raising children has made me less patient with ornamentation for its own sake. So, I was delighted to sink into LeBlanc’s world, poems about the death of her father and her relationship to her body, poems that are raw and unvarnished in their honesty about grief, about loss, about the management of the body, all those things we cannot ever really control but still try desperately to." |
