Download or read book Acid Virga written by Gabriel Kruis and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Gabriel Kruis is a really formidable poet. Acid Virga is rather terrifying, also a tour de force and a formal breakthrough. . . a blend of narrative and lyric the way the mind is. . . ” —ALICE NOTLEY “As wildly visionary as it is linguistically alive, Gabriel Kruis’s Acid Virga drills down into the bedrock of American life to produce a book unparalleled in its exploration of how visionary experience and social upheaval collide in ways that are both transformative and annihilating.” —TOM SLEIGH “If you’ve ever been conscious, and felt a little disturbed about it, of life as ancient and ephemeral or that falling apart is an integral force, this is a book to read over and over.” —STACY SZYMASZEK “. . .a great affliction and affection inform Acid Virga, fast-moving with strophes like brisk moving cloud banks over the mind in your heart.” —MAJOR JACKSON “Meanwhile, in el mal pais, leaned out on mucinex, mixing dexy cocktails in the haloed pharmacy of the car...” An unusually assured debut, Acid Virga is a memoir in verse cutting between a vivid Southwest upbringing and modern O’Hara hustle in New York City, deeply and seriously reckoning with the psychedelic heritage of religion and the psychological clarity of chemical consciousness. It is both thrillingly propulsive and dense enough to read again and again, always offering up something new. Language is boundlessly specific, evocative of states internal and external, reading at times like a melancholy memoir stuck between stations, an epic poem or even a philosophical tract, always a true and important record of our American lives as lived now—an endless and reliable ticker tape of the soul.

Download or read book Mock Trough Rasping Crow written by Billy Cancel and published by Blazevox Books. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. "billy cancel's new book of poetry, MOCK TROUGH RASPING CROW arrives with a giant bang! He is our era's John Donne, doused with the spittle of Mark E. Smith, while he dances to Captain Beefheart. Cancel's poems are rich & sophisticated, blending the guttural & surreal with a delicacy that knocks me out every time I read him or see him perform. Open this book, read it, & be transformed."--Todd Colby "'i have to start / everywhere' as only the best poets can have it! I have been a huge fan of billy cancel's poetry for years & this book is long overdue, but here, finally, to get us right by spirit in the magical sluice through this fucked, harried but beautiful world! Get reading this NOW!"--CA Conrad "In Billy Cancel's dense phantasmagoric psychoscapes one should always expect the unexpected: 'crows fly backward,' the 'sky [is] full of / gizmos,' and 'lush datafication has / neither been requested nor shall be well / received.' These hard-hitting, high-energy lyrics feature everything from 'retro sci-fi aesthetic cobwebs' to a 'big-wow-painted-dome-disaster-show.' This is to say that MOCK TROUGH RASPING CROW portrays with startling precision the feel of navigating the continuous onslaught that is our contemporary reality, which would be deliciously absurd if it weren't so disturbingly dystopian. Cancel aggregates with considerable force an ingenious combination of phrases, lexicons, and speech registers; hot and smoldering, his 20-line poems are like fragments of Parnassus after it has exploded."--Michael Leong "Frenetic, goat-punk-nimble & friskily absurd, MOCK TROUGH RASPING CROW confirms billy cancel as one of poetry's most original talents. This collection is a dazzling & jolting pleasure."--Jane Ormerod "Reading MOCK TROUGH RASPING CROW I was captivated in much the same way as when I watched billy cancel perform, though the masks & at times flamboyant costumes were missing I was caught up in the language, dark humor, magic & surreal screwball imagery. This is 1 of those rare instances where performance poetry transfer perfectly from page to stage & vice-versa so 'don't let your attention wander' as cancel puts it, MTRC is about 'everything at once / or something all the time.' Grab it, crack it open & try, if you dare, to figure it out."--Steve Dalachinsky

Download or read book Urgent Bards written by Michael Whalen and published by . This book was released on 2016-08-27 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Billy Cancel, Ed Go, melissa christine goodrum and Susan Lewis are four of my favorite contemporary poets, both in their written work and also as literary performers, and they've contributed some incredible poems to this anthology. Over and over again while reading these poems I get the same sort of electric jolt, the same feeling of surprise and discovery. From the dense language play of Billy Cancel's work to the fractured blues/jazz-steeped lyricism of melissa goodrum's to Ed Go's tweaked narratives and the constantly shifting lines of Susan Lewis' prose poems, this is work that is driven by a sense of linguistic play and experimentation, a desire to upend expectations of how language typically is used in surprising, often unsettling, ways.
