Dan Raphael:
HERE THE MEAT TURNS TO THE AUDIENCE


523 E. 38th St.
Baltimore MD 21218


32 pp., $2.00

Faux surrealist writing seems not to make sense; on closer examination, it's nonsense. True surrealist writing seems not to make sense, on closer examination, it's es-sence. This is the real deal--untranslatable and inexplicable, but fine. In the first poem, Dan sez "i throw away my glasses and accept my way of seeing"--the rest of the book lets you share in his (twisted) vision.--luigi
