Playing With Fury

Book excerpt: Modern poetry in antique forms. This short book contains angry poetry in different forms. Most of the words are in common use, and they’re not meant for the reader to puzzle over, expressing simple themes of anger and loss. Sestinas, Villanelles, and Angry Sonnets. Although the poems are in written using forms from the 18th century and beyond, they are simple to read and understand. No puns, no confusing alliteration. No weird words to equal the rhyme. Cats, BFF, jerks, and everyday life are conveyed in this tiny book.
