Sleep With Me (poetry) 23.95
published 2020 84 pages
The trenchant poems in this book use the word
'Lullaby' as an ironic metaphor delivering incisive commentary on our
capitalist society. Never predictable, the lines roll from one to the
other, crashing on the headland of the mind, challenging our concepts
of the world around us. Combining passion and wit, Vickers' probing questions
and observations are a must read for those who want a keener look at ourselves
and our cultural milieu. |

Infinite Power (poetry) 23.95
published 2016 94 pages
Infinite Power, in Vickers' eyes, “is not
a zero sum game but a journey / a stone thrown in a lake / circular ripples
emanating outward” and the danger of our age is that we have lost
contact with that power, made it something to possess like a personal
bank account. In writing these poems she hopes for a reconnection to that
sacred universal relationship. |

Impermanence (poetry) 21.95
published 2012 64 pages
In Impermanence, Janet Vickers explores
the roots of a profound energy driving the universe: why things change,
grow old, die, and then life seems to flourish again. Seed becomes the
flower, the cradle becomes the grave and all is charged with the electricity
of temporality, all is changed from moment to moment. In her first book
of poems, Impermanence, Janet Vickers has captured these ephemeral moments
in tranquility and grace, driven by a succinct and powerful spark that
ignites all existence. |
