Synopsis

This debut collection of 33 poems from rising poet and Ezra Pound scholar Justin Kishbaugh engages with profundity and tenderness the space between two individuals in and out of love. Whether it’s the sharp silences of things unsaid, the loudness of thought, or the flash of kiss on bone, these poems are sure to leave their impression. Working from the traditions of painting, lyric poetry, and film noir, For the Blue Flash exists within constantly shifting moments of poetic inspiration that fluctuate between despair and the sublime. Each small poem bears its own fruit , but also belongs inside the luxuriant world that is this collection. You will feel the last poem more deeply because of the first, and then, perhaps, be tempted to start over again.
