Dig Wayne’s Shout Down the Clouds is a glorious amalgamation of brilliantly-penned poetry combining forces with aesthetically mesmerizing photographs. Clouds is a gallery of creative alchemy and profound artistic expression likely to conjure up cravings for an artistic revolution. This full-color, hardbound volume is presented in Mystic Boxing Commission’s signature Deluxe Edition format, where every turn of the page reveals graphic intensifiers and the finest writing. Wayne’s book is among the very best. “There are echoes of Whitman's democratic embrace, the improvisational daring of jazz, the Zen-like acceptance of contradiction, and the streetwise humor of someone who understands that wisdom without laughter quickly hardens into dogma,” says Richard Modiano, Beyond Baroque Director Emeritus, in his foreword to Shout Down the Clouds. Poet-author, actor and Temple of Man Director S.A. Griffin says, “These knockout poems and adroit poetic images are Dig Wayne, beat brother from another mother tongue, unblinking witness inside this flickering noir commonly subscribed to as the American dream.”
