Clean (Paperback)

From the "basement / of that suburban church with its sad paint / job in Texas" to an old drag queen's "parlor," "that bazaar of flounce, chintz, feathers," Clean, the award-winning collection by David J. Daniels, tears back the curtain of life to expose gorgeousness and grit. These poems pay homage to the addict, the grandmother, the closeted, and the lover, to the dead, the dying, and the living who refuse to die.
