Best book by this profound arbitrator of all styles
21 Dec 2006
Format:Paperback
For the Blue Sequence, for the Borges, for the funk and the experimentation, for the hearbreaking narrative right beside the elliptical maneuvaring, for negotiating all styles to make a new style(s), for the appreciation of aesthetics that cross without crossing out any, this is my vote for best book of poems in 2006, and beyond.

God Bless the Rage in Us./It's How We Know Each Other.
12 May 2007
Format:Paperback
The above title is a quote from one of the six poems in the collection which share with collection's title. Haye's poetry is angry and blue. It's wild and yet contemplative, structured and yet abstract. Which means nothing in terms of a review, but he is possibly the strongest voice in American poetry today. His words are powerful and relentless. He is the future of American poetry and he's already arrived.

Not stupid, not boring, not overly intellectual
31 Oct 2008
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Hayes has something that I really like, something that's rare in modern poets: he has the ability to be both intelligent and playful at the same time. He combines a number of different modern poetry styles to create poems that are confusing, thrilling, interesting, sad, childish, and heartfelt all in the best of possible ways. I never found myself reading a poem I didn't like.
