Summary
*Poetry to breathe in, by one of Twitter's most popular micropoets.* In his fourth collection, Bauke Kamstra presses even deeper into the unknown and unknowable of human nature, even as he raises micro-poetry to a new formal perfection with a virtuosity that is as vibrant and revelatory as it is fluid and natural. Rife with the lush, concise sensuality of Basho's greatest haiku, yet laughing in the face of strangling constraints, these poems explore the relationship between human and air, breathing, space, and an apprehensive grounding in reality. A sense of need will take you on a varied voyage beyond the farthest edge of desire, only to leave you craving more. This is a book for savoring, for relishing, for sharing with the world.
