Logorrhea dementia : a self-diagnosis ; poems

"Attempting to stitch a quilt of language for the new millennium, Kyle Dargan finds himself in his third collection propelled forward by a melange of voices-- individuals passed on the street, journalists, philosophers, movie and cartoon Characters, hip-hop emcees, and fellow poets--all of which build to a self-diagnosed logorrhea dementia. Dargan's voice channels an America mentally fatigued from a decade of foreign conflict yet cautiously hopeful about the promise of the country's renewed introspection."
""Both hip and academic, serious and laid back, [Dargan] seems never to exist on the page without the strength of both of his eyes doing different things in the name of all of his senses."--Thomas Sayers Ellis, Author of Skin, Inc. --Book Jacket."
""Kyle Dargan's new collection is an uprising--and an extremely artful one. These fierce and abrasive lyrics and jeremiads possess a visceral immediacy that makes much of the writing of his generational peers seem timid. Be forewarned--you should handle this book with asbestos gloves."--David Wojahn, Author of Interrogation Palace."
