Broken English (Broken Lives Book 1)

For me, the name Dante conjured up two images. The first was the epic depictions of Hell from Dante’s Inferno, with people burning for their sins. The second image was a sexual depiction. I don’t know where it came from, but as far back as I can remember, I had always associated the name Dante with a beautiful and sexy man. I'd imagined a dark-haired, dark-eyed, gorgeous lothario, the type who could capture a woman’s heart with just one look. Dante was the Fabio of my generation, the heartthrob that got women’s hearts beating fast, made us want this man to rip our clothes off and to th... [Read More]

Death of a Scratching Post: Bukowski, Cats, and Me: Volume 2 (Raw Underground Poetry Book 5)

"CATS ARE US, AS WE WISH LIFE COULD BE."This short poetry chapbook is a celebration of cats as much as it is a look into loneliness, into the heart of a poet, and perhaps into yourself. If you've read my previous cat-themed collection, LOVE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LITTER BOX, then you know what to expect: Cats are the stars of some poems, bit players in others, but they are always there, purring in your ear, telling us life isn't so bad if we'd only just open our eyes and see...SAMPLE POEM:"MAGNIFICENT BEASTS"There's a cat inside us,biting, clawing, to get out.This cat is wild—it wants to be fr...

Lines of Advance: A Fractured Prose Book

Poetry is what I do when I have nothing else to do. Or when I have something on my mind that needs out. Or when I want to write something short and powerful. Or when I just don't want to use punctuation. This is a collection of those moments in time, and more. It is a step forward from my first book of poetry, Fractured Prose, but it isn't the apex yet. We'll get there someday. Maybe.

Our Numbered Days

"When you're dumb enough for long enough, you're gonna meet someone too smart to love you, and they're gonna love you anyway, and it's gonna go so poorly," Neil Hilborn writes in his debut full-length collection, OUR NUMBERED DAYS. In 2013, Hilborn's poem "OCD" went viral, and has amassed over 11 million views to date. While this collection ruminates on love, heartbreak, and mental illness, these poems are anything but saccharine. Hilborn uses the same humor and self-deprecation that propelled "OCD" to success in order to make his unmatched vulnerability all the more powerful. Ultimately, Hilb... [Read More]
