What if you could pull a chain and your dreams would come trailing out on the page in front of you—In poetry?
In "Our Chains, Our Dreams, Part 2" -the latest collection of poems by Poets Unite Worldwide-, this is just what happens. Explore your dreams, your nightmares, your fears, your anger, and your love through a series of poems, both short and long, and in a variety of forms. Along the way, you'll meet muses, a tortured Sisyphus, a lonely man, and have dinner with Augustine by candle light—you might even learn how to fall in love again. Read this carefully curated selection of verse with a discerning eye and look for relationships across poems by theme, by words, by story.

I ordered the poems in this collection according to the following loose guidelines:
1. Start and end with a short strong poem;
2. Mix poems by short and long;
3. Link the poems to each other by a word or a theme.
This was a challenge, but fun. I enjoyed seeing where poems linked to one another. Some of the links were truly surprising.
