Grown Ocean - Paperback
by Matt Mitchell (Author)
"THIS WORLD IS CRUEL TO THOSE WHO
INSIST UPON STAYING OPEN TO IT.
MATT MITCHELL, THE POEMS IN GROWN OCEAN
SHOW US AGAIN AND AGAIN,
IS ONE SUCH SOUL-
EVERYWHERE IS AN OCCASION
FOR GRATITUDE AND AWE,
FROM BUFFALO NICKELS TO COHABITATION
TO MEAT LOAF TO ASTRONOMY
TO COKE ZERO TO, YES, LOVE.
AND THAT IS HARD, RETAINING
SUCH A PERMEABILITY TO TENDERNESS
IN A CULTURE, A NATION, THAT CONSPIRES
SO RELENTLESSLY AGAINST IT.
IT'S GOOD AND NOTABLE WORK,
THE LOVING THESE POEMS TAKE UP.
AND THEY'RE VERY GOOD POEMS."
