New Book! Pain Diary by Joseph D Reich, Brick Road Poetry Press Written in the form of memoir or an old time shipping log, _Pain Diary: Working Methadone & The Life & Times of the Man Sawed_ in Half can be viewed as two free-flowing, stream of consciousness, confessional poems. Both are set in sea-faring locations: New Bedford, home of Herman Melville and birthplace of Moby Dick; and Plymouth, where the Pilgrims settled alongside the Indian tribes of Massachusetts. While "Pain Diary" is a clinical term for the log kept by patients and clients to detail the moments when they feel most desperate and in crisis, the term is also an excellent descriptive for this one-of-a-kind poetry that seems to spring out of raw emotion in language that is, at one and the same time, natural, spontaneous and desperate--the language of survival http://www.brickroadpoetrypress.com/about-pain.html Call for Submissions- Ad Story Submissions matchbook is about to run an experiment.
