Canyonesque by Tom Clark

“On Tom Clark’s Poetry:

“”Clark’s exactitudes of diction generate and inform the imagination… finally it is only poetry that is capable of saving such extensive cultural memory from the vortex of history.””

—Edward Dorn

“”A writer known and loved for his enthusiasm, curiosity, purity of scope of imagination, and an amazing ability to blend humor and cosmic concerns.””

—Amy Gerstler

“”The place he writes from, of void/non-void overlap, is a pure arena for the imagination to play in; and Clark is likewise pure: austere, bleak, exalted too… shimmering as ever.””

—Alice Notley

“”[Clark] really flows and gambles and plays it loose. I like his guts… He’s the raw gnawing end of the moon.””

— Charles Bukowski

“”Tom Clark has been one of American poetry’s most consistent and constant chroniclers of our long sleepwalk to parts unknown.””

— Joel Lewis

“”He is one of our original modern troubadours, and he deserves to be read.””

—Tony Hoagland

“”Tom Clark’s poems seize the heart. They make it stop, for a second or two. They make you think twice about reading anything carelessly, ever again.””

—Anselm Hollo
