Trance Metamorphic | poems for a new generation

ByDavid Leidy

Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
A controversial poetry book that dives into ancient conspiracies and mythological lore, the connections between erotic, spiritual and platonic love and occult and mystical wisdoms and experiences. Topics and genres cover anywhere from a screenplay masquerading as poem about a screenwriter feuding with his character all the way to a science fiction story about a woman who claims to have spotted her boyfriend's replica. Ultimately the wildly unique characters, language, ideas and stories, ebb and flow in a way that collides into a sort of ego death and spiritual awakening. There is much more to be found here than initially meets the eye. Inspired by poets such as Federico Lorca, Charles Bukowski, Allen Ginsberg and James Tate, the book pushes the boundaries on what a poem can be. At the end, the book includes a surreal short story by the author about a bank cashier who must pass a series of strange tests in order to get a security position that can pay for his dying wife's medical procedure.
