She has the

Ability

To give

Me

 

The highest

Highs

 

And the

Lowest

Lows

 

And like some

Addicted

Gambler

 

I put my

Heart

On the

Table

 

One

More

Time

 

Even though

I once

Said

 

I will

Never

Go into that

Casino

Again.

L.K. Thayer Reviews  SHE POEMS by Mike Meraz

Meraz is a less is more poet. His women have the power

and he lets you feel where he has been punched.

There is no excess in his writing, just below the belt truth.

Meraz takes you into cinematic short films of his love life and

as the leading man,  he makes you care about what happens to him.

SHE POEMS is inspiring, provocative and profound in it’s complex

simplicity. His style is cunning and addictive and after each poem

all you want is more. – L. K. Thayer
