A daredevil poetic achievement nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award . . . A god isnt worthA drop of water in the hell of his goodImagination, if we cant curse Sunsets & threaten to forsake himIn his storehouse of belladonna, Tiger hornets, & snakebites.--from Meditations in a Swine YardNo turn in any life cycle is taboo as Yusef Komunyakaa examines the primal rituals shared by insects, animals, human beings, and deities in Talking Dirty to the Gods. From Hearsay to Heresy, these 132 poems, each consisting of four quatrains, are framed by innuendo and lively satire. Komunyakaa looks to nature and configures his own paradigm, in which an event as commonplace as the jewel wasp laying an egg in a cockroach becomes every bit as grand as Zeuss infidelity. The formally rigorous collection is itself a design for a systematic cosmos, a world compressed but abundant in surprise and delight.
