“Grimoire” by Jacob R. Moses
This is the cover of my first full-length poetry book under Jacob R. Moses. The title of the book is “Grimoire.” For those unfamiliar with the word, it’s a book of spells used by magicians of all varieties (wizards, witches, etc). I doubt you will turn into frogs when you read this book, but biodiversity … Continue reading “Grimoire” by Jacob R. Moses
Recovery Poetry
If you’re gonna be in the Staten Island area this weekend, please come through to this event centered around recovery and addiction.
Recovery Poetry
I will be the keynote poet at this event centered around the empowerment of people recovering from substance abuse. As someone who is in recovery from benzodiazepines, I am not only grateful to be alive. I am grateful to tell my story and empower those struggling with sobriety. Come one come all!

“The Many Attitudes of Dennis” by M.A. Dennis
https://www.amazon.com/Many-Attitudes-Dennis-Spoken-Poems/dp/0359417329 Sealey Challenge #12 I'd be truly remiss if I didn't include the words of M.A. Dennis in my recommendations.
