Long neglected or scoffed at by poetry \"purists,\" the prose poem is now taking its rightful place as a distinct and accepted genre in American letters. Johnson\'s work as founder and editor of \"The Prose Poem: An International Journal\" did much to garner acceptance and respect for the genre among both poets and critics alike. This book, his second collection, is filled with the mystery, humor, and pathos that make this form so appealing and so accessible.Peter Johnson lives in Providence, Rhode Island, with his wife and son. He teaches at Providence College.Poetry. Winner of the 2001 James Laughlin Award of The Academy of American Poets. \"Johnson\'s prose poetry presents a consciousness that combines the immediacy of personal observations with the darker, inner urgencies of the unconscious. His supremely quirky mind enables him to combine the strange and the familiar, the most urgent bursts of lyricism with disarmingly unemotional statements. He leaves the reader with a new appreciation of a genre that, perhaps more than any other genre, makes the ordinary extraordinary\"-Michel Delville. Peter Johnson is the author PRETTY HAPPY and LOVE POEMS FOR THE MILLENIUM, both available at SPD. Founder and editor of The Prose Poem: An International Journal, Johnson has edited the SPD title, THE BEST OF THE PROSE POEM: AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL.
