This one's about something "consumer" and "odd". In my previous collection, "Graffiti on the Window", I made a conscious effort to appeal to a very specific subset of readers and the work was kind of academic. It incorporated a lot of the themes of the eclectic, the crazy, the verbose, and the ethereal. This book's a little different than THAT one. It is more open to subtle suggestion, has less intense visual cues, and shorter poems. It represents not a vision for the schizophrenic artist would-be "dictator", but rather a series of "poem portraits" designed to be concise, drawing upon multiple "visible" layers, as with a painter painting something more restrained. It's an attempt at being more aesthetically pleasing and stylistically accessible, with an underlying attempt at abstract, disconnected images, words, emotions, ideas, and especially FANTASIES (realized or unrealized, or purely unattainable) of a gutter poet chronicled, proper, aged 13 to 24. With no desire to be subsumed under the label "schizophrenic" or "manic-depressive". "Graffiti" was something stoners and sociologists may dig; this one is more for everyone...well, okay, maybe not EVERYONE. But I don't care. Turn the page and see it all.;) A.S.
