Описание: Buena Suerte in Red Glitter offers lyrical and prose narratives as authentic as Johnny Cash songs. His poetry has the edge and enthusiasm of a writer that thrashed to favorite bands and dove off a few stages in younger days. Also drawing on his So-Cal youth, Craven remembers drinking Hawaiian Punch at the Presbyterian Church and riding his Sting-Ray down the fire-trails, and leaning against his backpack in the mountains above Los Angeles, seduced by unprotected sky, a much better choice than having to watch time breed endlessly in a twilight of algebra class. In Manhattan, Craven's poems dive into what is lost in messy desire. Hungry passion disconnected from love transforms the poet into a werewolf: Last night's prey just your memory. The betrayals bring pain as he moves back and forth from Los Angeles and New York City: A hawk cries against the sky somewhere in Hollywood. Here in New York, I waited for the sun with a glass. Like you once waited for me. But his poems also capture the joys that survive the hurt: I have heard you plead, "C'mon Hurry " And I have crawled to you like a man. Shimmering with intoxication, loss, longing, and moments of sharp anger and celebration, the poet's searching finds a way forward. His experiences have a cost, but he reminds himself after a cross-country road-trip to listen and rest, then awake in a sun-splashed afternoon: a baptized stranger in the normal world. |
