4.9/5 (21728 ratings)

Description:NightBallet Press remembers, honors, and celebrates Prince Rogers Nelson on what would have been his 58th birthday (June 07, 2016), with the publication of Delirious: A Poetic Celebration of Prince. Edited by Dianne Borsenik, Delirious contains 98 pages of poems written by 70 different poets from across the United States, England, and the Philippines. The poems range from a 5-word haiku to a 3-page crown of sonnets; also included are shape-poems, abecedarians, a poem written in java script, a conversation with a 97-year-old mom, poems with lines meant to be sung, a touching tribute to a "best friend," a smile in turquoise, and reminiscences about the soundtracks of younger selves.Each poem is a distinct facet of the glittering world of Prince, his music, his words, his art, his sexuality, his fashion, his convictions, and his impact on an entire generation.Prince influenced lives on multiple levels, giving face and voice to nonconformity and self-expression, encouraging and validating creativity and sensitivity. This book pays homage to the remarkable life of a very special man.It became obvious early on in the call for submissions that we were receiving far more poems than we could accept if we kept the saddle-stapled format NBP has always used. We made the decision to utilize a flat-spine approach for the anthology in order to include as many poems as possible. So, for the first time ever, we sent the book to a printer to have it perfect-bound!Many thanks to all the poets who contributed their work and made Delirious possible. Each contributor who had poems chosen for inclusion receives a free contributor's copy, which will be mailed during the month of June. NBP is truly impressed and delighted by the scope of the work submitted.The contributing poets are (in the order their poems appear in the book):George WallacePaul KonieckiRobert WalickiSkaidrite StelzerSteve AbbottLorraine CiprianoJoey NicolettiVictor ClevengerThasia LungerA.
