The Light in Ordinary Things

Poets are in the business of seeing things differently, writes co-editor D. Patrick Miller in his Introduction to The Light in Ordinary Things, which is Volume One of the new Fearless Poetry Series. Whether the poets in this volume are focusing on doorknobs, bedsheets, apples, or garden tools, they reveal startling and often soulful views of everyday phenomena.
