Description
Poetry. WINTER COAT includes 16 poems, widely published in such magazines as The Georgia Review, Chelsea and The Southern Review. So I went out again into the liquid circumstance of my life/ and saw the happy orangoutang of my love/ cleaning the sidewalk drains of their zeppelins/ and winter shoved its shoulder against the door/ and lo all around me the swimming trees/ the scratch against the sky/ then the quick shower of blood I thought was rain ... (So I Went Out Again). Tom Whalen directs the creative writing program at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts. Perfectbound chapbook.
