Tongue Stones
Three book-length poems from a projected series of five scaffold the cosmology of his art . At 290 pages, Tongue Stones—the first in the anticipated quincunx seeks to unravel the mystery of our bad relations with ‘Others’ and with the Earth itself through a decoding of the language of the mythic past (Austin Book Award and The Violet Crown Award). Tongue Stones seeks to present a mythic critique of The West and simultaneously a critique of the the Myths of The West.
