WEDNESDAYS WITH DENISE: March 15, 2023

I’ve never read anything quite like the poems in Michael Chang’s Synthetic Jungle which is published today by Curbstone books. I’ve never read anything quite like their poems and that is a good thing indeed. Chang is making space for high art (Heidegger)and low art (Shawn Mendes) and poets (CA Conrad and Wayne Koestenbaum) and by the time I finished this book I was dizzy with excitement. Reading Synthetic Jungle is like riding a roller coaster of associations, my equilibrium off in the best possible way. Congratulations, Michael!

You can check out their poem “Zum Zum” here:

I left it
on when I
left the house
for the pleasure
of coming back
ten hours later
to the greatness
of Teddy Wilson
"After You've Gone"
on the piano
in the corner
of the bedroom
as I enter
in the dark


from New and Selected Poems by David Lehman
