Synopsis "Glitter Glue the Slowly Sinking Idols"

Affirming blackness, mysticism and compassion, Wilson's poetry captures a world where "smiling is the face of God" and rainbows abound. Yet lurking still is the long shadow of racism, the suffering of the aged, a famous singer's tragic early death. "Here the world is constructed through words like a prophecy." Here pop-opera and alchemy co-exist with the dust of ancient cities and ghost bikes. An enlightening collection of rich and carefully wrought verse that challenges and delights, extolling the virtues of magic, memory and mercy. Glitter Glue the Slowly Sinking Idols is a must read. Lo Galluccio, Author of Hot Rain and Sarasota VII"intelligent, vivid, musical, richly allusive and meticulously crafted. . . has a true gift for the image, metaphor and simile. His poetic diction is consistently strong, drawing on a vast multilingual vocabulary." Martín Espada
