About this ebook
Multiple Exposures got its title from a photography mistake the author made. A sticky plunger caused a multiple exposure of a self- portrait. It serves as the cover art and symbolizes the many sides of her soul she has bared in the verses.
Multiple Exposures is Sara's second volume of Poetry. Many of poems are about gritty real-life events. There are dreamy, atmospheric poems inspired by music or weather conditions. In some verses, enigmas of the cosmos or the human mind are pondered.
Vibrant imagery is the hallmark of Sara's poetry. Some of it can be moody and dark.
She chose her own favorite poems for this volume, and included some favorite encore poems from her first volume:
Dark Shadings, Spattered Light--and other publications.
Recipient of the Gold Award, Multiple Exposures, by Sara Marie Hogg has been announced the First Place winner, Global eBook Awards, Poetry Category, 2012 at the red carpet event in Santa Barbara, California. (August 18, 2012). If you love poetry, you just may find something to love in Multiple Exposures, by Sara Marie Hogg.

Blue Jay Feather
Blue Jay feather on the ground,
Flutters,
White-tipped end, wind-driven,
Blue-black lines fall into
White-shaft, pointed,
Writing stories in the dust,
Writing Jay! Jay! Jay!
Bird stories in the dust

Anaphylactic Bliss
Lone back-of-the-patch watermelons
Begging to be broke open
Were a good crime story,
But no one ever went to jail
Not ten paces away
Twenty-three white boxes lined-up
Going east to west in a
Sort of solar ellipse,
A direct path toward
The back screen door
Of Mamma Jewel’s growing-empty nest
On Cedar Street
If you got close enough
To take a secret peek,
As kids do,
To see the ivory cubes, a big mystery,
You might run off with a shriek,
