HYDROGEN SOFI

Hear shadows laugh as they dance across the walls just out of reach. Enter a gray apartment filled with burning tapestries the lovers aflame inside. Lose yourself in the flesh-red center of a broken lie too beautiful to let go. HYDROGEN SOFI is a dark sensuous elegy to a hallucinogenic love-manic and rife with blood and concrete-delivered in eight prose-poem letters and an accompanying menagerie of free-form surrealist poems. This is the second edition of the debut collection of poetry by Tanya Rakh. Hold me in my fitful sleep the you that loves me. The you that needs me vacuum and alone. Always alone Sofi an abyss overlooking odyssey the entire adventure a tumbleweed of dust and flint. -from Chicago to Paris II
