Featured SwEP Author: Christopher Grillo

Swimming with Elephants Publications, LLC would like to reintroduce to you to Christopher Grillo.

Christopher Grillo’s chapbook, Elegy for a Star Girl, was published by Swimming with Elephants Publications in May 2017.

Each poem in Elegy for a Star Girl is categorized into three elements of existence: The Other World, The Here and Now, and Transcendence, and each poem is a combination of life experiences, Science Fiction, and space. These poems illustrate great depth within the soul, body, and mind, and the illuminating language and imagery express the universe as a metaphor. Life is questioned and answers are hard to find. Life is a journey that must be experienced from above. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.
