Description
Book SynopsisRhythmic and energetic poems, exciting to hear read aloud. Sigo is a Native American and gay poet, and we expect that this book will particularly interest both communities. In 1995 Sigo was awarded a scholarship to study writing and poetics at The Naropa Institute in Boulder Colorado where he studied with Allen Ginsberg, Anne Waldman, Lisa Jarnot, Alice Notley, and Joanne Kyger, among other poets. Many of these poems are addressed to other poets, helping readers relate his work to a larger poetic history. Sigo has lived in San Francisco since 1999 and is active in the poetry scene there, which is one of the most vibrant in the country.
