The Way Out Starts At The Center - And Others Poems #941401

“The verses are often loose, almost improvised, often terribly vulnerable, building a world that is vast and lonely. In Sahal’s own words, Rimbaud ain’t got shit on him, he only had to deal with a season in hell, and our Poet has been through at least a hundred and twelve.”
