WOLF FACE poems by MATT HART

Welcome to Matt Hart territory, a strange, at times bewildering, often brilliant  expanse where our trail guide ranges back and forth or hovers over the  boundaries between everyday domestic details and a richly imagined wilderness.

—Paul Violi

 

 

New poetry! Matthew Lippman’s MONKEY BARS!“Care about something deeply and then demonstrate those depths” … That phrase is either the definition of poetry or  the definition of Matt Hart  or a recipe for love or all of the above if the above includes fistfuls of unease  overcome by an almost rabid need to convey the fullness of existence.     

—Bob Hicok
