Praise for The Geoglyph:

"In this age of confessional poems or political poetics, the poet of

The Geoglyph has given us a long poem about the nature of nature, the trees

that are in our memory, the eternal sunrise, the tribal sense of

ceremony, the mysteries of deepest waters. It is not a scientific diatribe,

but a song, indeed it feels like incantation as he makes us imagine the

shamens, the cycles celestial, something geological coming from the heart

of New York.  I cannot help of thinking of some of the movements of

Michael McClure, of his use of logos.  Mr. Kosiewicz makes his own

language of disparate influences. I felt many poetic intuitions

turning these pages, a wise bird flies out of its words."

-Victor Hernandez Cruz, Chancellor, the Academy of American Poets

 

"Patrick Kosiewicz is an emerging poet of substantial power and versatility.  The Geoglyph is an innovative work that breaks language open to bring us face to face with the microscopic and macroscopic elements of existence.  While the poet takes many risks, they invariably lead to extraordinary rewards." -Pablo Medina, author of The Cigar Roller Fly by Night Press 285 e 3rd Street NY NY 10009
