A Collection of Poems by Mike Wilson

From dream-crafted poems to a six word, three-line composition, Mike Wilson’s works search for connection and understanding through a lens of mortality and maybe a little absurdity. After the reading, Mike reveals his process for recalling and creating dream poems that we know you’ll find fascinating. Mike also talks about the stories he’s written as a small-town lawyer, including the unusual inspiration for his current novel project.

Take a deep dive into the brutal world of fish breeding, mating, and raising offspring. You might find more than a story about cichlids and catfish, leading you to think hard about human resilience and adaptation. After the reading, Petra Elliott delves into the horror genre, comic-cons, head-eating fungi, and how she learned to love roller coasters.

Hardy Coleman’s humorous and poignant poetry will surprise listeners with its combination of clever turns and wistful imaginings. Tragically, Mr. Coleman passed away before his interview and we are unable to share this wonderful poet’s voice and thoughts with our Story Discovery listeners. But like all good poetry, Hardy’s inner world and unique voice is forever captured in his writing. We hope you will listen again and again, like we’ve done here at Etched Onyx.
