Resurrecting Onions

James Borders is a poet, husband, grandfather, and recovering curmudgeon. After decades of writing pithy satirical poems and grocery lists, he decided to get serious about poetry which has resulted in his first book, Resurrecting Onions. James is a member of Bistro Poetry and the host of Peripatetic Poets based in Columbus, Ohio. Recent poems have appeared in Meniscus Literary Magazine and Madness Muse Press. This book shares the poet's struggles in order to help others suffering abuse to know recovery and a better life is possible and can break the cycle of victimization. They do not deserve the gaslighting or the tearing down of one's self worth. When not writing poetry, James spends his time woodworking, gardening, napping, and trying to spend time with his wife, Evelyn, all while raising three granddaughters.
