Black Night Is Falling

By: Woods, Scott

Black Night Is Falling is a book-shaped blues album.

Scott Woods' third book of poetry wrestles with ecstatic notions of Blackness, the beauty and grief to be found in every 'hood carryout, the colonization of pumpkin spice, and backstage tales of the vaunted and mythical Cookout.

At turns funny, fearlessly irreverent, and dark, Woods composes a love letter to the existential and emotional blues, gathering up all of the love and woe that can be held in the face of a world seemingly resigned to its own blues.

Black Night Is Falling is contemporary poetry driven by rhythm, cultural observation, humor, grief, joy, and the unmistakable voice of a poet steeped in performance.
