Description
Blues For the Grauballeman creates a landscape of language that engages the reader not only on a visual and visceral level but on an emotional and intellectual one as well. As the poet digs for truth and sifts through layers of meaning, the poem embodies a created experience: the physical body of utterance, the archeological flesh of meaning.
