Produktbeschreibung
Comet Wine is a book of poems, not a collection of poems. Although it does not have a traditional narrative, it certainly does have an imagistic thread. It invites the reader to be, as s/he reads and experiences, the needle and thread that connects them. Comet Wine begins with 'Prelude (A Poet's Work)': "What is the poet's Work?/And why and oh why and oh why;" a job description that immediately makes it clear that this is not a 9-5 position. And by the end of the list we learn that it is above all "To write poems/That are misunderstood." The reader is orbited around the theme of love: poetic, personal, cosmic, sexual, sensual, unrequited, comic and tragic, in a way that only a poet can and may.
