Show Me the Banksy is based on observations about life. Whether it be the title poem and the realistic views of mysterious Banksy's work or observations about people others may choose not to see, Rubin pulls the eyes of the reader to observe from the dangling light bulb of life on life's terms. Humor comes into play with Mints, but this also elicits a certain warmth for the scene. Come and explore these observations and experiences. Open up to the possibility of awareness from another's mind's eye. What others say: In his powerful new collection, Elliot M Rubin "breaks our hearts open" with hi...
Show Me the Banksy is based on observations about life. Whether it be the title poem and the realistic views of mysterious Banksy's work or observations about people others may choose not to see, Rubin pulls the eyes of the reader to observe from the dangling light bulb of life on life's terms. Humor comes into play with Mints, but this also elicits a certain warmth for the scene. Come and explore these observations and experiences. Open up to the possibility of awareness from another's mind's eye. What others say: In his powerful new collection, Elliot M Rubin "breaks our hearts open" with his poetry. A true romantic, Elliot offers us meditations on mortality, love, politics, and writing all the while positing: How can we sustain ourselves in this beautiful and brutal world? Poetry is his answer... "to finally write for infinity." In these pages, Elliot takes us on "poetic rides" through time, memory and manhood. Not everything was perfect, but in our differences, he finds life "perfect." "I think the world is filled with different vegetables, and that is perfect," Elliot teaches us. Nancy Bryan, author of the poetry collection, "The Blue Lantern" ***** ¿¿¿Elliot Rubin is equally adept at letting loose with deeply personal reflections, and broad philosophical enigmas, often simultaneously. These narrative poems, with rich characters, concisely spring out of very few words. It reads like Frank O'Hara entered a micro flash fiction contest. There's humor, sex, heroin, Brooklyn, and New Jersey to peruse. "Banksy" is both elusive and standing on a corner with a sledgehammer. Rubin's concrete imagery makes all subjects accessible from historical saloons to the private anguish of abortion. The depths of emotion are tempered with humanity in poems that once etched, remain. Doug Stuber, author of "Chronic Observer," Finishing Line Press; Editor, Poems from the Heron Clan ***** In his first poem of the same title in this new collection, elliot m rubin, shows us wonders, surprises, twists, and turns found on everyday streets, just as England's street artist Bansky does with his artistic and colorful impressions. From as early as the 1950s to timeless scenes captured in image-provoking language unique to his well-honed, observant voice, rubin easily convinces us to love his loves, his hates, and his emotions as if they were ours, yet leave room to add our own experience. In shades of Bukowski, William Carlos Williams, Billy Collins, and a field of master poets, rubin stabs, cajoles, shocks, easily shed tears or guffaw as we drink in his natural ability to connect our souls, minds, and hearts with life and spirit.
