I am pleased and excited to announce that my publisher, Stonewood Press LLC, has just released my eighth full-length collection of original poetry.

“Inside the Smoke: A Centurial Collection of Poems”

From the back cover:

A timeless collection of one hundred original poems that touch upon a variety of subjects. Emotions, experiences, memories and dreams are all treated with the author’s patently thoughtful and provocative style.

His customary use of the free verse form is especially enjoyable for its rare poetic clarity as well as for his masterful use of language. Lenzi has a special talent for metaphor that makes for memorable turns of phrase.

Inside the Smoke merits a place in every personal library of contemporary American poetry.

This volume is now available on Amazon in both paperback and kindle versions. Similarly available are my 7 earlier books,

• City of Pawns
• Range of Motion
• Two-Cornered Rooms
