QuickviewRude Girl by John Sakkis
PoetryIn Rude Girl, light "scrime[s]," a girl secretly "places a button under her tongue," and a tide is a "pseudonym" both for not speaking (right then) and for what comes after: the start of seeing "the things [in front of]" (my brackets), which in fact "were always [in front of]." There's an attention too, in John Sakkis's beautiful book, to the "frequency and occurence" with which these things happened. Are happening. Like "years or color." Loved these poems. Hope you will too. Bhanu Kapil$16.00 -
Quickview“now, 1/3” and thepoem by Demosthenes Agrafiotis | Translated by John Sakkis and Angelos Sakkis
Poetry, Superstars"A book of temporally organized form that renounces time, that disassembles form. Demosthenes Agrafiotis' poetry argues, chafes, bristles, and unrelentingly chomps at the bit of its own constraint, as well as at every other human construct, linguistic or otherwise, that might serve as a convenient container for consciousness. ""now, 1/3"" is an extraction of sand from the hourglass… as if the sand weren't free to begin with. —Harold Abramowitz$16.00
