Obscenity for the Advancement of Poetry

obscenity for the advancement of poetry is both manifesto and tragedy. It carves up the shallow misperceptions of being [queer; female; human; other] and exposes the viscera of perpetual becoming that is who we are and what we mean to each other¿as individuals, as citizens, as bodies. Sardonic and sincere, obscenity questions your intentions¿and your digressions¿and hopes you do, too.
