Enter Here: poems

The latest collection of poems by award-winning author and photographer Alexis Rhone Fancher. Lust longing urban noir and the emotional ravages and physical heat that colliding souls cant help making are all artfully packed into these lyrical narratives by a poet who refuses to hold back (Michelle Bitting poet and author of The Couple Who Fell to Earth).Mixing heartbreak and hilarity these poems deliver an emotional wallop with the ease of a woman rolling down her nylons (Pam Ward author of Want Some Get Some and Bad Girls Burn Slow).Alexis Rhone Fancher is not merely a detailed chronicler of our socio-physical interactions--she is by far the most exciting articulate and convincing storyteller in contemporary verse (Gerald Locklin poet and fiction author of 100+ books).Any self-styled critic who characterizes Alexis Rhone Fanchers written work as only sexy stanzas would be making an egregious mistake. Far more accurate to portray her poetry as grainy gritty noir images by a female version of Henry Millers bitter observation of the dirty word relationships or Georges Batailles eccentric business of the creative woman at times catering to the psycho-sado fantasies of her lover or Stephen Schnecks nightmare world of sensual dreams but with an added dose of infectious humor (Michael C. Ford music journalist playwright Grammy-nominated spoken-word artist and Pulitzer Prize-nominated poet).I write about women like me women who own their sexuality and take responsibility for their choices. It may seem Im writing about sex but really Im writing about power. Who has it. How to get it. How to wield it. How to keep it (from Featured Fem Alexis Rhone Fancher interviewed by The Fem literary magazine 17 June 2016).
