Trombatore's economy of language is quite impressive, as is the freshness of his imagery.

Trombatore's language is a wave of wonder: a deft and blooming fusion of painter's colors and a naturalist's detail, surrealistically thick and witty. Once you've read Screaming at Adam two or three times, take the pages and frame them like photos for your favorite wall.

Trombatore's words speak in colors. Reading his poems is like taking an imaginary paint brush and creating a beautiful masterpiece. We're honored to have had Joseph's work in the premiere issue of our magazine.

Lit by vivid pictures – bowl of plums, bloodied knees, crayola balloons – Joseph R. Trombatore's lines are quick and sharp like the snap of bones.
