Darren C. Demaree yet again dazzles the literary intellect with his depthless exploration of human relationship, connection, and the transcendent community notable in any dyad. Through language that holds utmost beauty for its starkness on the page, Demaree guides the reader through nineteen cycles of poetry to once more move readers beyond the molten landscape of the earth to something extraterrestrial, something beyond the human that, without words, might never be touched at all. Here, he constructs a book with a voice to feel in every aspect of the body.

The Pony Governor

By: Darren C. Demaree

The Pony Governor by Darren C. Demaree is a series of politically charged poems that challenge shallow leadership and attack the abuse of power at the hands of those in charge. While at times aggressive, and with a penchant for not holding punches, the collection remains fair, aimed at engagement, redemption, and restoration from brokenness. Demaree addresses issues relevant to all readers attempting to find their way in the labyrinth of modern politics. He maps emotion through the various milieus people find themselves inhabiting under leadership gone bad. Despite the pain and struggle the poems often exhibit, they offer hope for a future free of exploitation, free of underhandedness, free of deception. These poems whisper and shout and ache and quiver. In the end, they stand accusatory and fearless.

So Clearly Beautiful

Poems

By: Darren C. Demaree

I had a professor in grad school tell me that no matter what the subject of the poem I was writing might be, every poem I wrote was a love poem, and understanding that about my own work has freed me up to take a lot more chances...I hope the readers are able to find a sense of joy in the poems." - Darren C.

A Fire Without Light

By: Darren C. Demaree

The concise, almost cold nature of these poems, and the speaker's persona, is so stark, it mimics our very own political landscape, in all its deeply unsettling and troubling ways. In this way, these poems could not be more important, or come at a better time. Demaree captures the frightening loss of freedom and stiff standards we face as a culture right now, especially with lines like "They want your name. They want to know why you make love to your wife on Sunday." I am better for having read this collection. -Joanna C. Valente, author of Marys of the Sea
