Not Aloud presents some 30 plus years of Christopher J. Jarmick’s marvelous poetry. Jarmick’s thematic territory is expansive– family, relationships, the art of writing, philosophy, his patented poem starters, and much, much more. His language is musical, approachable, and memorable. His refreshing turns of phrases stand cliches on their heads: The clouds/are not metaphors at all./ They hide the sky, /they get fat, /sometimes they burst, /but not with tears, /Mr. Tambourine Man, /just with rain. Full of humor, acute observation, and deep emotion, Not Aloud is a collection you’ll want to return to again and again.
