First Light

By CA Conrad

"One of America's most legendary living poets."-Ocean Vuong

In this powerful meditation on sunrise, beloved poet CAConrad presents an electrifying new collection of poems.

Guided by a (Soma)tic poetry ritual for writing while observing sunrise--in person and across the world via live public webcam footage--First Light is permeated with the immediacy of living through anthropocenic times and the murmurs of relations past and present. CAConrad's distinctive poems emerge from the page in sculptural forms, which have been shown in museum and gallery exhibitions in the US and around the world. At once contemplative and stirring, these poems "sing on behalf of the whole organism."
