Book excerpt: The poems in Dobby Gibson’s new book transform the everyday into the revelatory Little Glass Planet exults in the strangeness of the known and unknowable world. In poems set as far afield as Mumbai and Marfa, Texas, Dobby Gibson maps disparate landscapes, both terrestrial and subliminal, to reveal the drama of the quotidian. Aphoristic, allusive, and collaged, these poems mine our various human languages to help us understand what we might mean when we speak to each other—as lovers, as family, as strangers. Little Glass Planet uses lyric broadcasts to foreshorten the perceived distances between us, opening borders and pointing toward a sense of collectivity. “This is my love letter to the world,” Gibson writes, “someone call us a sitter. / We’re going to be here a while.” Elegiac, funny, and candid, Little Glass Planet is a kind of manual for paying attention to a world that is increasingly engineered to distract us from our own humanity. It’s a book that points toward hope, offering the possibilities of a “we” that only the open frequency of poetry can create, possibilities that are indistinguishable from love.

Book excerpt: Poetry. "After john puts us through the paces with experiments and games, throws us talismans of rose quartz and 'tired-sick teeth, ' we return to the beginning--or, more appropriately, a beginning, with the final poem, 'how to start.' Again, as with the cosmos, we begin 'in the dark.' We begin with a meditation, a poem to speak aloud to ourselves. We start with our eyes closed, and then we open them, and then we read."--Carolyn DeCarlo some planet is a tiny cosmos in fevered conversation with itself. some planet is what it's like to recover from your own self. some planet is what it's like to be a human. existing in one's mind, in one's body, in one's world, in one's galaxy, all tiny universes inside tiny universes all locked in fevered conversation. some planet is the coin in your pocket when you don't know how to choose. some planet is when everything is both itself and simultaneously else. some planet is a house covered in overgrowth on the outside, plastered with memory and story on the inside. john mortara is leading you through the woods by the hand. trying to get you home safe before sun goes down.
