The Pink - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Poetry. THE PINK reads like a bio-centric futurist work of patterned effeminate lyricism and distortion whose themes are fatherhood, motherhood, and childhood, while playing heartily at inherited themes and motifs through re-worked fairy tales, observations (recordings), and children's verses.

"In Jared Schickling's newest explosive work, THE PINK, generative conflations ensue: feminine becomes feminist, parents & children share consciousness, babes & poets are suckled and grown. Deploying gorgeously scissored phrasings, syncretic linguistic constructions, and sonic booms, Schickling here perfectly embodies Jakobsonian selection & combination, revealing the mother in the bottle, the boy who is, and the girl-to-be. As he aptly juxtaposes 'the only way for something to be interesting / is to become something else' and 'I'm jealous; I am not the people. / I am inside and outside and inside and outside.' All are the case, and we're happy to live in such a fresh interstice with such a rangy brilliance."—Sandra Doller
