Thresherphobe
In his sixth collection, Mark Halliday continues to seek ways of using the smart playfulness of such poets as Frank O&;Hara and Kenneth Koch to explore life&;s emotional mysteries&;both dire and hilarious&;from the perpetual dissolving of our past to the perpetual frustration of our cravings for ego-triumph, for sublime connection with an erotically idealized Other, and for peace of spirit. Animated by belief in the possible truths to be reached in interpersonal speech, Halliday&;s voice-driven poetry wants to find insight&;or at least a stay against confusion&;through personality without being trapped in personality. History will leave much of what we are on the threshing floor, Halliday notes, but in the meantime we do what we can; let posterity (if any!) say we rambled truly. Forward Prizes for Poetry: Highly Commended for \'Classic Blunder\' and \'Lois in the Sunny Tree\'
