MELT is a metaphor for that which lives on in us against impending loss—sexual and precise, full of the images of the ever thawing earth. He enacts through lyric language a new way of seeing for our survival, immersed in the joy and joining of our human bodies, because 'after all the phosphorescent \/ beings beneath your separate \/ skins mountains and glaciers \/ too beautiful to live beneath.' You could die of beauty here.\"—Sean Thomas Dougherty\u003cp\u003e\"The sense-drenched offerings in MELT once again cement Derick Burleson's role as unflinching witness, a master spinner of huge tales in tiny spaces. The insistent lyrical current that pulses through these deftly-forged stanzas create a music that will immediately enthrall and captivate the reader. Burleson is a startlingly good poet who burns down borders with every word.\"—Patricia Smith\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marick Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47059486277872,"sku":"9781934851340","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781934851340_p0.jpg?v=1763655429","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781934851340","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
