Annotation: Poetry and polemics have typically gone in opposite directionsthe fine flame of the sonnet, blue cone in orange, versus the raging blazes of oratory. But opposites are alike in every way but one, and when poets have bcome politically aroused, Areopagiticas of language have been ignited (look it up!). Now three poets long associated with the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa in Boulder have joined their linguistic bonfires in a volume of polemical poems. Put a dark glass over your minds eye and read!

Publisher Description:
Poetry. Essay. In this collaborative work, three poets long associated with the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa in Boulder join their linguistic bonfires in a volume of polemical poems. Bob Perelman writes, Anselm Hollo puts more vivid emotion in 50 words than is found in most confessional novels. And Andrei Codrescu writes that Anne Waldman is one of the great voices of our slice of the century.
