Sinopsis

In todayâÇÖs world, actual money (i.e. cash) has becomeámore of an existential concept.'CASHING CHECKS with Jim Morrison offers a surreal cascade of archetypes from, among others, ancient Greece, the Bible, American Literature, and pop culture. Moving through it is the speakerâÇÖs companion spirit and guru, Jim Morrison-Lizard King, Narcissus/Adonis. Set in a world where, in Albert EinsteinâÇÖs words, âÇÖreality is merely an illusion,âÇÖ Lindsey Martin-BowenâÇÖs poems are alive with wit, evocative imagery, insight, and sometimes downright playfulness. Through heeding MorrisonâÇÖs counsel to âÇÖgo weirder,âÇÖ sheâÇÖs made this collection reader-friendly.'-William Trowbridge, Missouri Poet Laureate, 2012-2016áAuthor, Call Me Fool (2022)'In Lindsey Martin-BowenâÇÖs CASHING CHECKS with Jim Morrison, I relish every word, compelled by the poetâÇÖs stories and singing voice. Fantasy and fact merge in these invocations of the seminal American rocker Morrison and of his spirit. Join me as a reader in exploring this exciting testament to the power of language to resurrect history and wonder.'-Denise Low, Kansas Poet Laureate, 2007-2009áPoetry Unbound Featured Poetá
