Paul Watsky

4.9/5 (27337 ratings)

Description:There's an edgy discernment in these poems, built on rage, impatience, and a deep generosity towards brokenness. "Broken" is where a boy's sentience began, and the means by which powerful poetry has evolved from the man.Walk-up music is a snippet of song that identifies a batter as he approaches the box. In this collection baseball becomes a trope for a form of life in which failing two-thirds of your at-bats is a great performance. As so often in the Majors, in Watsky's poems we encounter cycles of regression, aggression, redemption, and renewal, knit together by an unshakeable faith in the (human) team.From his self-creation tale, "You Musta Loved It as a Kid," to the poem that hinges the book, "The Absurd: An Invocation," this poet throws heat: unhittable riffs of lyric vernacular that strike you out watching. And make you want more.So many poems in Walk-Up Music stop me in my tracks, as if I'd just come upon fresh chalk marks in the shape of a man at an accident scene. But the man walked away: scathed, extraordinary, a poet.Dawn McGuire, M.Div., M.D., author of The Aphasia CafeWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
