商品描述
Poems of tender knowledge, buoyant survival, and Black, trans embodiment. The simple yet fraught experience of embodiment lies at the thrumming heart of Kelsey L. Smoot's Soulmate as a Verb. Bodies make love possible, they enable tender connection and transmit electric joy, all while leaving one vulnerable to discord and abuse, heartbreak and grief. Like a body, Smoot's daring poetry metabolizes cruelty, seeking the tender knowledge and kinships that allow for buoyant survival. The subjectivity of a Black, trans self becomes a prism, shining a variegated intellect on everything from suburbia to Palestine, top surgery to police violence. By utilizing forms such as kwansaba, calligram, Craigslist personals, and golden shovels, Soulmate as a Verb revels in structures that locate poet and poem in a lineage of innovative and contemporary Black, queer verse. Kelsey L. Smoot dazzles.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
柔情知識、充滿生機的生存，以及黑色跨性別的具身體驗的詩篇。
Kelsey L. Smoot 的《Soulmate as a Verb》探討了具身體驗的簡單卻複雜的經歷。身體使愛成為可能，促進柔和的連結並傳遞電般的喜悅，同時也讓人面對不和諧與虐待、心碎與悲傷的脆弱。像身體一樣，Smoot 大膽的詩歌轉化殘酷，尋求那些能夠促進充滿生機的生存的柔情知識與親密關係。黑色跨性別自我的主觀性成為一種棱鏡，將多樣的智慧投射到從郊區到巴勒斯坦、從胸部手術到警察暴力的各個面向。透過使用如 kwansaba、文字圖形、Craigslist 個人廣告和金色鏟子等形式，《Soulmate as a Verb》在結構上慶祝詩人與詩作在創新和當代黑色酷兒詩歌的傳承中所佔據的位置。Kelsey L. Smoot 令人驚艷。
