In Pawning My Sins, we see Michael Joseph Arcangelini as a drunk, an outlaw, a hedonist, a voyeur, in recovery, opposed to and flowing with shades of modern anxiety, and, most importantly, as a poet. As we read on we find our own relation to these memories, memories of the venal sins we commit in the process of truly living. In this cycle of poems we find Arcangelini fearless with his sins. He stands with them embracing the grace found on the edge of his expanding timeline.
- Jason Baldinger author of a history of backroads misplaced: selected poems 2010-2020.
In Pawning My Sins, Michael Joe Arcangelini presents an eclectic collection of poems that fit no single mold. A cross-section of a life, it holds memories from his youth, responses to the pandemic, reflections about the death of his parents. The poems speak about detox and death, elephants in every room and the magic of fireflies. They ask How do a hummingbird's wings/ sound to the hummingbird? and imagine some uncertain future/where words might yet be allowed/to carry untrammeled truth.
