I wear a figleaf over my penis
Description:
There's a lot of humor in the book, a lot of anger, some silly crazy Oulipo style nonsense, and some honestly felt emotional ballast. If one could compare a book of poems to a ship, this one has a hull filled with heavy cargo that sometimes shifts as the equator moves around deep waters. And so much concern for the animals, the lowliest species get their share of respect. It is the first book I've read, for example, that alludes to the "terror attack" on Siegfried and Roy by their tigers and lions, in terms of deepest sympathy for the big cats for whom the worm finally turned.
