Prayerland: Poems 2011 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781468182897)

These selected poems from 2011 by Gordon Purkis, while not specifically religious, offer insight into a year spent in contemplation and conversation with certain Powers. A different type of voice for the author emerged in a year of lower poetic productivity but hopefully produced a more mature approach. Speckled in of course is a love for words and an explorative curiosity for how they work together, language being a vehicle for unexpected discoveries. Gordon Purkis is a poet, artist, editor and publisher. Currently he works in Sales and Marketing in Atlanta, GA, volunteers as a DJ and theatre usher. His work has recently appeared online in Bewildering Stories, Lucid Rhythms and elsewhere. Another collection "Circus Fragments and Other Poems" is also available on Amazon.com.
