Art is never still, it moves, with an almost restless intensity, from one moment of inspiration to the next. It takes many forms and each form enriches the other. I am so pleased to offer you art inspired by, and art that inspires, poetry. From music, to dance, to rap, to humor, to visual art, all art forms are related, one to the other; sustaining one another, validating one another and perhaps, most importantly, inspiring one another. I am excited and truly honored to be presenting these guest artists, as they share their talents and artistic forms of expression with us.

“Stars drift in skies so blue they seem to move in restless ways echoing the motion of the sea…”

Susan A. Katz

“…blue the color

of delight      of dreams we

never thought we’d dream

guiding us through

the shadowed gloom of night…” – SAK



“A simple gift hand reaching for hand joy exhaled into the vast reaches of the sky above….”

of hope is this

gift of care

this priceless

offering of love…”



“All around me flowers grow like smiles to fill the hours of this summer day…”

showing me a kinder way…”



We are all living things a part of earth and sky….”

to be part of everything

before we die…”

Susan A. Katz

“…while you are scrabbling for a seed

denied you

by the inhumanity of greed…” – SAK



“Behind our backs the world is dying…

Susan A. Katz

“…such is the truth
we spend our lives denying…”



“We stand clothed in our supposed nobility adorned by arrogance beneath an endless universe of stars…”

Susan A. Katz

…as insignificant as dust

upon the wind    deceive ourselves

into believing we are

more significant than what

we truly are…”



“Words rise words fall say less say more…”

Susan A. Katz

“white-winged birds

adrift upon

the winds

of metaphor…”



“I stand and stare into the unknown…”

Susan A. Katz

“waiting for the courage

of the poem…”



“I cannot bear the things I see the things I hear the things I know…”

the comforting embrace

of poetry      the safest place

I know to go…”  – SAK
