ABC MOONLIGHT by Ben Estes

140 x 190mm, 108 pages, black and white printing, perfect bound, softcover, 2022

With mounting intensity extended across three sections of poems, Ben Estes' achingly personal second collection unfolds to reveal an uncer­tain past, present, and future that is by turns mysterious and beautiful. ABC Moonlight contains poems that are filled with reflective awareness and subconsciously constructed dreams; a sweeping landscape of queer Midwestern loss and desire; and pairs of "folded poems" that question love, hope, and vulnerability in our current times. Rather than prescribing answers, Estes offers the reader intimacy and open-handed, big-hearted consolation—"Now to let something go / of myself, / without any need / to replace it."
