About this item
by Dante Émile (Author)
"Dante Émile has no dull edges. Turn Misplaced Organs & Various Saints on any side, you will find something to whet your blade with. This is a collection of asking: an asking of God, an asking of The Self, an asking of The Lover, all of which I recognize as prayer. It begs & demands. It is fantastic & fast. These poems hit hard, rattle the molars in the sockets. These poems pry the skin back. They shock, then delight in that shock. Misplaced Organs & Various Saints is vicious & bewitching. It will haunt you, like a father, like heartbreak, like a God that wants blood & regret. There is no doubt that Dante Émile has hit the mark. This poetry lingers. Let it root down to the bones & live there."
