Sobre IBD

Dedicated to the poet's mother, this single long poem uses the terminology of art, design and fashion to portray a character and to investigate both its own language and the process of writing poetry. The poetry is sensuous, playful and dynamic, taking the reader along on a dizzying ride through the pleasures of language.
