Poetry

Scrambler Books

The second edition of Daniel Bailey's intoxicated battle cry of a sonnet sequence. From forgiveness in a beehive to tiny banquets for retired janitors, Bailey's poems have been wept and clutched and dropped all over, but they will still be there in the morning when your heart catches a shake.

Poetry. HALLELUJAH, GIANT SPACE WOLF offers both an irreverent and sincere exploration of desperation and hope. Bailey's poems pair the personal with the mythical and traverse many linguistic quadrants. SPACE WOLF's seamless transition from Lakers games and 40s to severed limbs and Jesus Christ offers a glimpse at the sanctity of chaos. With SPACE WOLF, Bailey tests dangerous waters—these poems breathe violence, yet many are absurdly funny. "I don't know how many poets could write a book bringing together meth, Barney, racecars, black metal, God, and the Lakers in one massive feral hymn, but Daniel Bailey is the only one I'd trust. Water into wine is fine but this man can do it to dogshit. HALLELUJAH, GIANT SPACE WOLF is hilarious and true and beautiful. Hail holy spazzlord Bailey."—Blake Butler "If Daniel Bailey's poems were people, they would be the kind of people that you love to get drunk with but you're always a little afraid that they might try to slit your throat. When you tell them about Emily Dickinson feeling the top of her head come off, they reach for a saw. Still, you can't help but love them. They're a blast! They're always a step away from going to jail or running into your parents or causing you to rearrange the furniture in your loneliest apartment. Daniel Bailey's poem-people are in a gang called The Space Wolves and they are really, really excited about learning something from this terrible, amazing, gigantic world, even if that means that we'll need a mop for all of the blood."—Peter Davis

However one refers to his reason and libido, it is their juxtaposition that leads most single men in their 30's to a crossroad: the long and winding uphill path of commitment, love, and fidelity, or the hazardous but infinitely more fun track of puerile abandon, which spirals licentiously downward toward old age and loneliness. As for me, I chose to purchase a ticket aboard the Escort Sex Train, which made regular stops at Disappointmentville, Rip-Off City, and Freaktown, along with an occasional stopover in Port Satisfaction. "Sorry, No Kissing" is a journey during which I examine myself to uncover why I have shunned meaningful, lasting relationships in favor of fleeting dalliances with prostitutes, and through one bizarre encounter after another attempt to explain the psychological mechanisms and sexual weakness that govern my behavior. From the Bahamas to Las Vegas, Jamaica to Mexico, I employ promiscuous yet seemingly hollow women in an effort to fill some emotional bottomless pit, and to answer the unsettling question of why to this day I appear destined to remain... unkissed.
