In an age of information's uprooting of everything, John Curl's Scorched Birth creates, through a fusion of data and metaphor, a magical poetry that resonates with classical American (Mayan) simultaneity. This is a book of wonders.
- Jack Hirschman Discover the electricity in language, unmask the mind, follow the unbroken spirit through content and conflict in John Curl's latest book Scorched Birth. A Master Poet who uses language in a remarkable, innovative way, he gives us information on contradictions in the evolving state of human consciousness. The tensile lines of these poems are a strong loom holding the strength of an interwoven theme of Social Justice making deliberate design through the poet's understanding of actions and attitudes. John Curl shows us the undersides of clouds and cultures but also shows immutable order in chaos. He can, in a single poem, give at least 15 ways of changing personal, social, political darkness, including purification by fire. Though some are seemingly surreal, strange and new, your intellect tells you each line is someone's reality at the core
