“A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape of the universe, helps to extend everyone’s knowledge of himself and the world around him.”
—Dylan Thomas

Brand New; satisfaction guaranteed. Hard Goods & Hot Platters is saturated with American popular music. Its lines carry a rhythm of their own, alternately relaxed, looping, urgent, melancholic, and Eros-driven. We get an "Homage to Mick Jagger" and a note by a Springsteen groupie, and encounter a notable roadhouse cheek by jowl with cheap motels. Billie Holliday gets her own poem, richly deserved. And the Ramones rate a cameo. According to James, "Love's some player on the summer fire escape," and I'm inclined to believe her. Nor do I doubt the wisdom of these lines: "cable and bible / love, s... View More...

Trade paperback. Brand new. Thank you for supporting Last Word Books and independent booksellers.Nothing short of the entire known world is at stake in these poems. Like a road made only of twists and turns there?s no place to rest, slow down, or pull over. The images morph in fresh kaleidoscopic successions from wood so dark it only grows in mines to tomato sauce mixed with chlorophyll and alka seltzer. Raphael?s concerns ricochet between the ordinary, the primordial, the deeply political and the surreal. I know of no other poet writing today who rides the remotest edges of language so fluent...
