✦ Synopsis

Cover; Description; Title Page; Acknowledgements; Contents; from THE SAME SEA IN US ALL (1985); Sails come sailing out; Our shadows are very long; Only to go along; You, you moon; White clover asks nothing; Who has who has ever; O distant sun; If you want to go; Every dying man; They are standing up to their knees in blood and mud; Everything is inside out, everything is different; Sleep covers us too much for one, too little for two; Non-being pervades everything and being is full of peace; No one can put me back together again; And when the sea retreats from here.;After starting out as a neo-surrealist American poet in the 1970s, Thomas Lux 'drifted away from surrealism and the arbitrariness of all that. I got more interested in subjects, identifiable subjects other than my own angst or ennui.' The later Lux writes more directly in response to more familiar but no less strange human experience, creating a body of work that is at once simple and complex, wildly imaginative and totally relevant. He uses humour or satire 'to help combat the darkness to make the reader laugh - and then steal that laugh, right out of the throat. Because I think life is like.
