Big Blue Hospital and Other Poems, by Robert Allen

Poetry, chapbook, 32 pages, from Bottlecap Features.

Big Blue Hospital and Other Poems rides the intersections of grief, illness, and loss – all the while holding space for healing.

I consider myself a confessional poet and my poems illustrate my direct emotional experience. Is the subject of the poem “me?” Yes, and if my poems resonate, I’m pleased, My goal is to express universal feelings and relatability in my writing. I hope it succeeds.

Robert Allen lives with his family in Oakland, CA, where he writes poems and coaches poets to be better in their craft. He has had poetry, flash fiction, reviews, and interviews published widely in online journals and print magazines. www.robertallenpoet.com, https://twitter.com/RobertAllenPoet.
