When Time Was Stable: 2023 Poetry Collection

by Eric Nixon

When Time Was Stable is Eric Nixon's 2023 collection of poetry; the 14th volume of his annual series. Reading chronologically, like a poetic version of a journal, the 150 poems contained within provide a fresh view of the often-overlooked, while marveling at the wonders of nature, the absurdity of modern society, the sorrows of death, and the joys of life. These poems are like little stories that give us the innermost, private thoughts of a poet.
