Publisher's Synopsis
"The sky is like a poem is like the body in that all three are composed - what we experience as "inevitable" or (worse) "natural" - limitless blue expanse, for example - might only be a membrane that enables us to scrabble about on this fragile orb at the edge of nowhere. The page is no less silent, smooth or matte surface over which to cast our dreams, our fears. Hassen Saker is at the eye of the storm for a new generation, lyric & personal & analytic & tough, committed to no medium but the truth. This is a book of wands." Ron Silliman
