<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This text collects poems that tweak and skewer pop culture and literary sources from Paul Laurence Dunbar to T.S. Eliot to traditional ballads and blues.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Douglas Kearney's innovative new collection makes me tremble like a 'mouth and mind full of fish hooks.' . . . These poems literally vibrate with Kearney's precocious intellect and passion. They hum, they bang, they bite. What else can I say? I have never encountered poetry like this before.--Terrance Hayes</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Douglas Kearney's work as a poet, performer and librettist has been featured in many venues in print, in-the-flesh and in digital code.
