Poetry. "Like Lamantia, Wainio has given us a precious gift, something to travel with, a California supermarket of Greece and Egypts"--Roderick Iverson. "I was afraid of my cave at first, perhaps inhabited by demons Jesus encounters and drives out. But no this is a place for gypsy sprits, serene, gutsy with wild wine and honey. My lone wasp mage comes by everyday, seems to feed off the occasional ant. A lone taverna dog goes back and forth. Strange birds, like black and white doves, appear furtively at morning when they can't see me looking at them through my mesh tent opening"--from The Apocalypse Rave: A Coda. Be sure to check out Wainio's other titles, including CROSSROADS OF THE OTHER and AUTOMATIC ANTIQUITY, both available from SPD.
