Bøker av Michael Borth

Quantity, understood correctly, produces a quality in and of itself. Art is supposed to be a technology for altering reality. Books are supposed to be impossible objects, things that can only be experienced and not "read," rogue cosmoses that will never be incorporated fully into this one. The closer you approach the farther away you will get. Welcome to The World Dreamer -- 400 pages of visionary, technical, labyrinthine poetry from Michael Borth.

Triple Twelve is a strobogrammatic tour of future lives, from manta rays to triple goddess to plain suicide, a lurid music of crossed numbers. In these poems meaning is wherever you find it, the boundaries are tenuous and granular and ecstatic, the radiant fool is tyrannical and meticulous. We find here the phantasmagoria of the mundane, the glassy harmony of the blood spheres, and the resonant paradise of changing forms: a holographic respite among the levitating stones of the total field.
