While Standing in Line for Death

Poetry. "CAConrad's voyeuresque surreal portrait of Frank includes apotheosis, rebirth, talking teapots and hats. It disrupts the landscape as 'pins and/zippers of/other days/loosen.' CA is very good news as a raconteur, poet, performer and activist and makes news daily with his dedicated Outrider passion and 'alternative path' imagination. 'Onward, ' as Bob Creeley would say"--Anne Waldman. "I can never have enough CAConrad, like paprika or wisdom in disguise. Is he the Frank of the book?"--Bernadette Mayer. THE BOOK OF FRANK is the recipient of The Gil Ott Book Award, as chosen by Nathaniel Mackey, Myung Mi Kim, Eli Goldblatt, and Charles Alexander. The Gil Ott Book Award honors the legacy of poet, publisher, and social activist Gil Ott

Translucent Salamander

Frank Sherlock

Poetry. Wander with CAConrad and Frank Sherlock through this psychogeographical poem. Experience peoples' histories and magical traditions rooted in the first capital of the American possible—the city of Philadelphia. Visit landmarks that remain standing, revisit citizens that live on in memory, and participate in the future mappings of your city yet to be realized—the city real and imagined.

The City Real & Imagined

The poet captures the energy and vigor of queer culture, highlighting various deviants and forms of deviancy against the backdrop of the search for love and political defiance. Original.
