An inventive new collection from the acclaimed African-American poet Jay Wright

/>

/>In Postage Stamps, Jay Wright continues his lifelong exploration as a sojourner, a pilgrim, the "homo viator," who speaks through and by an embellishment of a constantly changing movement to discover the incomplete sense and measure, the temporal invention of all relation, the soul in flight.

/>

/>This word flows all alone

/>de rama en rama,

/>a semitone

/>shaping the enigma

/>of air and voice, its tone

/>a dilemma.
