"A poem doesn't need to be perfect," writes this self-described 'unremarkabler-in-chief, ' and in place of perfection we get far more satisfying qualities, like invention and spontaneity. Take for example the sentence-long 'The Three of Them': 'It felt really good to have another big animal in the room watching over both of them.' Did I mention these poems will disturb you? Somebody Please is subversive and transformative and awfully funny."

-Will Schutt, Author of Westerly, winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets Competition

"Here is a poet. To think we're all working with the same tools ..."

-Lamb

"Dave Barrett's brand of aphorism holds a goofy sense of the body and all its seepages. His is a world where god is a clown and we all feel "that large breasted imposed upon feeling". Inhabiting flesh is our privilege on earth; this is a book where boners are juxtaposed alongside the natural and spiritual world in surprising and absurd ways, because it both is and isn't that serious sometimes. "

-Niina Pollari, author of Path of Totality

"A book of aphoristic wit meant to be read in bouts of coughing laughter or sung to the cold night skies."

-Graham Irvin, author of I Have a Gun
