| dc.description.abstract | A Good Walk is an ode to momentum, an ode to the hard-earned bonds of hiking—a father and son chasing each other along various trails. A Good Walk is a poem in twelve parts, each section crowned by a poem centered on a day in Scotland. There are tales of castles and deer, kings, queens, rock throwing girls, and heather—two men walking through it all. Each “Scotland” poem is followed by four thematically linked poems—trails that lead anywhere—from a game of roadkill bingo, to a sweatshirt of bees—from Dee Dee Ramone’s caterwaul call to song, to the coffin journey of Agnes through the Katrina flooded streets of New Orleans. A Good Walk examines the walkable territory of love, and the peculiar sideshows that pop up along the way. | en_US |
