Author: Colby, Todd
An extended love letter, Todd Colby's sixth poetry collection Splash State is filled with humor and charm. These poems are as concerned with aging, time, being and death as they are with eliminating “the need for anxious circumstances” with facts, instructions and advice. From extolling the uses of “Shark's Paw” and “Fink Leaf” to “how to look like everything is okay in photographs,” Colby's poems opt for the personal and generous, even when his tongue is firmly planted in cheek. If melancholy is just around the corner, these poems will walk with you in the opposite direction.
Todd Colby has previously authored five collections of poetry, including Tremble and Shine and Riot in the Charm Factory. New and Selected Poems was published by Soft Skull Press. His chapbook Flushing Meadows was published by Scary Topiary Press in 2013.
ISBN 9780988464360. The Song Cave. pb. 94 pages. 14 x 19 cm.
