Description

The second collection of poems by the author of Wild Kingdom and the winner of the 2003 James Laughlin Award of the Academy of American Poets presents new poems that are brimming with humor and dynamism, focusing on the line between history and metaphysics in both long narrative verse and rhyming lyrical snapshots.

First Sentence

Tall and plural and parallel, their buff, excited skins of glass pressed to glass and steel bronzed by the falling sun, the city's figmentary buildings dream that they are one with the One.
