Climbing a Burning Rope: Poems

By John Paul Davis

In Climbing a Burning Rope, John Paul Davis focuses his peculiar imagination, philosophical lyricism, and misfit spiritual outlook on life in the hypercapitalist twenty-first century where the inscrutable logic of algorithms haunts our constantly connected selves. Celebrating the weird and wild, lamenting wounds and weariness, Davis's poems carve out a space in which we can reclaim what is sacred and be reminded to keep something of ourselves for ourselves.
