paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Minneapolis. 1991. Coffee House Press. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0918273900. 129 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Canada Poetry. DESCRIPTION - Introducing these poems, Sward writes that in 1966 he was 'hit by a speeding MG' a…nd lost his memory for 24 hours. Curiously though, Sward's poems, even prior to his accident, manifest a kind of amnesiac's perspective on the world. Many poems in Kissing the Dancer discover an alarming novelty in experience using a child's syntax. In 'The Kite,' a woman who has just hung herself is described as, simply, 'skypaper, way up / too high to pull down.' In 'At Jim McConkey's Farm,' Sward's unusual takes on reality evoke a Zen-like calm. 'Overwhelmed by the complexities of skunk cabbage,' the poem's speaker suddenly realizes that 'at this moment / for this day even, we have belonged here.' At times Sward's technique gives his poems a disorienting and diffuse quality: 'children screaming and feeling slighted / The next minute we're walking along canals on the planet Mars.' In two inventive new poems, however, Sward's style is at its best. 'Basketball's the American Game Because It's Hysterical' uses the sport to discuss poetic prosody, and 'On My Way to the Korean War. .' depicts the levitation of '2,000 battle-ready troops.' - PUBLISHERS WEEKLY. inventory #33019.
