"The images he paints with his poetry are dark at times, but he lassoes readers in with the directness of his language. It's genuine and clever prose at its best."
 --James Cannaci Professor of English, Kent State Trumbull Campus

"Eric David Lough writes with a sensual honesty that provokes me to celebrate my humanity, to get up and live, to feel, to see the world, to relish the meandering of my soul.  Lough is a word smith par excellence.  He has traveled the side roads of existence and is definitely my favorite contemporary American poet." 
--Graham Hughes

"Lough's erotic sensuality is delectable and his word play is far from being common." 
--World Class Poetry.com

"As an actor, I pretend to know many things while truly knowing only what a writer gives me.  Eric David Lough's words give artists a place to lavish in thought without the saccharin or necessary love."
--Shannon  Smith, Performing Artist, New York City

"Eric David Lough's descriptions are provocative and mesmerizing. Reading his words makes me feel like I'm on a sexy acid trip to a place where men are emotional and smart."
