Pushing the High Note - E-book - ePub

From the glass-shattering soprano wit of artist-poet Barbara Johnson Chase comes this low-key/high decibel trove of art and verse: Pushing the High Note. Brain-fusing the magic realism of Nobel winning artist-poet Gunter Grass (Show Your Tongue) and the tummy-tickling word winks of U. S. Poet Laureate Billy Collins (Sailing Alone Around the Room), this humoresque is truly ophthalmic arpeggio for the frontal lobes.
From the visual music of Audition's "the old cage elevator" rattling to a stop, to the ocular barcarolle of a Viking Princess gliding about, an "oak leaf as her vessel, " to the goggled capriccios of Harley Man's "tattooed charm on my left forearm" and the waxed mustache whimsy of Monocle Max, Pushing the High Note is nothing less than cache-with-cachet - a thought-pourri of art and verse for serious collectors.
