Dreams of Animals (en Inglés) - Cody Ross Rex

Dreams of Animals, the fifth book of poetry from musician and poet, Cody Ross Rex (Brooklyn, NY, USA), is proudly published by Friendly Monster Press (Portland, Oregon, USA). This collection dances with myth and runs on the angst of mountains. It rarely sets foot on this earth; rather, every poem opens to a universe all its own, declaimed by a cosmic historian who's rarely surprised and who's never boring.

Cody creates pathetic gods and binds them ankle deep in mud. He zooms in as the inchworm wickwhacks its asshead ever forward. The reader will reach out and touch the boopy spine and the lubb-snug tongues that surprise and delight.

In spite of the mystical nature of much of the work, a deep humanity thumps throughout, twisting ancient dramas into strange and wondrous poetry that feels both new and old, complex and simple, like the best fables do. Cody's voice is singular, unapologetic, practically omniscient.

Open your mindwallet to the tapestries of design and woof, to the cool power set upon your rockhead, to Cody Ross Rex's Dreams of Animals.
