Gays have always been in the forefront of US poetry: Whitman, Stein, Hughes, Ginsberg. But it’s at this curious hinge of twenty-first century that poetry itself has found its way into the ear of public consciousness, so that we are finally hearing Whitman’s varied carols tambourining. Many of the poets in this anthology are not generally known outside the Slam, Performance, and Hip Hop Poetry worlds, but spinning on dialectics political, gentrified, aesthetic, this book features vibrant, sexy, and shocking new poetry focused on sexuality, gender, class, race, religion, and politics by Cheryl Boyce-Taylor, Regie Cabico, Staceyann Chin, Celena Glenn, Daphne Gottlieb, Maurice Jamal, Shane Luitjens, Marty McConnell, Travis Montez, Alix Olson, Shailja Patel, horehound stillpoint, and Emanuel Xavier |  Christ-Like by Emanuel Xavier (Paperback - Nov 1999) | | Pier Queen by Emanuel Xavier (Paperback - Oct 1997) |
