Interior with Sudden Joy: Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780374526986)

The Next Illogical Step In Love Poetry

The next illogical step
in love poetry
The most inscrutable beautiful names in this world
always do sound like diseases.
It is because they are engorged.
G., I am a fool.
What we feel in the solar plexus wrecks us.
Halfway squatting on a crate where feeling happened.
Caresses.
--from Dear Gonglya,

At once hyper-contemporary and archaic, erotic, indecorous, and extravagant like nobody else, Brenda Shaughnessy seeks outrageous avenues of access to the heart, This strumpet muscle under your breast describing / you minutely, Volupt, volupt.
