Chronic Poems
Author: D. A. Powell

Powell since his remarkable trilogy of Tea, Lunch, and — Cocktails, a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award so many of the best days seem minor forms of nearness that easily falls among the dropseed: a rind, a left-behind       ...  more »?from ?no picnic? In these brilliant new poems from one of contemporary poetry?s most intriguing, singular voices, D. A. Powell strikes out for the farther territories of love and comes back from those fields with loss, with flowers faded, ?blossom blast and dieback.? Chronic describes the flutter and cruelty of erotic encounter, temptation, and bitter heartsickness, but with Powell?s deep lyric beauty and his own brand of dark wit.
