JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF MY MIND
by Patricia Carragon
(Rogue Scholars Press 2005)
$15
Her poems are private rites/rituals of passage that never cease questions or delving into the dark, forbidding surface of things.
~Bruce Weber, Author of POETIC JUSTICE
October 9, 2007
It's good to see her high-powered, hard-edged poems collected in book form.

Urban Haiku and More is Here!
For anyone who knows Patricia Carragon, this newest collection of short, mixed-media poems will surely delight — if not surprise. From the riotously humorous to the deeply poignant, Patricia covers the emotional terrain with her witty personality unfurled and a display of craft that, like a dancer, seems so effortless. If you love contemporary short verse, you’ll certainly savor these confections by a poet who is a spirited observer of the world around her and within her.
–Brenda J. Gannam, Member, Haiku Society of America
Patricia Carragon hits the haiku right on the head – making
it as much her form as the masters’ – Funny and deadly
accurate – they stop you in your tracks – It’s no accident that
she starts off with a Kerouac and Bashô haiku – She frees
up the territory – Bashô’s frogs are replaced by bedbugs –
Kerouac’s drugs are replaced by Viagra – very feminine with
no holds barred – very astute and timely – a great read –
guaranteed to free up your notions of what a haiku can’t or
can do.
–Hal Sirowitz – author of Father Said

“Brownstone Poets”
Sunday, December 13 from 9:00-10:00 PM
Poets from the 2009 Brownstone Poets Anthology share their renegade brand of literary expression, with work from Patricia Carragon, Evie Ivy, Linda Lerner, Obsidian, Richard Fein and Peter Chelnik with Bob Feldman on sax.
With music by Ravi Harris & the Prophets and composers David Claman, Robert Voisey, Stuart Hinds, Adam Caird, Mike McFerron, CDZ, Christopher Ward, David Gunn, Cindy Cox, David Shannon, Gina Bivar and Katrina Wreede.
Copies of the 2007 anthologies are still available at these bookstores:
The Golden Notebook @ 29 Tinker Street, Woodstock, NY
Robin’s Bookstore @ 108 S13th Street, Philadelphia, PA
The Brownstone Poets 2011 Anthology is Here!
A labor of love brought together with the help of my team of assistant editors, Cindy Hochman, Brenda J. Gannam, and Karen Neuberg. Kudos to all three! Without their help and guidance, this anthology would not have been possible.
Copies will be sold at the readings for $6.
Stay tuned for the Annual Brownstone Poets Anthology Reading, hopefully, to be held in September. Details to come . . .
Will bring copies to Poets House for the Annual Showcase. Details to come . . .
Congrats to the contributors (the features from last year and the poets who came to support the Brownstone Poets venues), who will be getting their comp copy:
