Description
Sean McDermott is an Irish poet and songwriter living in Toronto, ON.   On his first book of poetry I Was Just Thinking:  An important collection by a superb talent reflecting the poet's world during the lockdown/Pandemic  "During my solitude, I have taken a deep dive into personal history and common emotion. The poems deal with my thoughts on relationships, alcoholism, illness, music and escapism into memories and fantasy. The work is wrapped in a protective layer of reality and optimism.... This is Sean's first collection of poems, each one surrounding a single realization of a visual truth in action. The poems cascade outward in reckless examination of a moment, a memory, and then retreat toward resolution." As always, we would love to hear from you.
