Report copyright infringementby Matt Cooper (Author)"Do or die. It is as simple as it sounds. Surviving rural Kansas is difficult, provisions are scarce and so are the supporters. To cross the threshold makes one a target for turmoil and a lifetime to create under the weight of expectations. This book is Cooper's vessel between the ruins of the American dream to someplace, somewhere a bit more livable."- Hevel Havalim, Carcinogen Racehorse Bassist, Error Collections CEO and Psychologist"This ...

Report copyright infringementby Jonathan Estrada (Author), Gustavo Gomez Yamasaki (Translator)This book reflects the implosion of the city towards another immensity. Here the whole city is submerging under the mega-tsunami of poetic configuration. Everywhere increasing the murmur of zero, echoing in its corners and binary walls, beneath the appearance, the prairie of antennae, the semi-formal life that evaporates with the calm of shipping and receiving. In this semi-real -therefore, false- wo...

Report copyright infringementby Joanne Ward (Author)"I am stunned by these poems. Joanne is fearless in carving out a place where, as a woman, she was told she didn't belong, where she worked building and maintaining substation equipment, climbing in towers, handling high voltage cable, and where she saw the spot a wireman had died when he went to work by mistake on a live breaker.

Report copyright infringementby Quintin Prout (Author)In his long-awaited second book of poems, Quintin Prout re-invents, in the spirit of our truest poets, the common language of English speakers to meet his needs in expressing his experience.
