The Blaze of the Poui unfolds a world as lush and rank as a rain forest, as alluring and lethal as a sea anemone. Mark McMorris writes of the Americas, the Caribbean, and other sites of conquest and colonization, mingling the personal and political, the present and past on pages filled with the language of parting, remembering, promise, and loss.

“McMorris is a poet utterly devoted to the sensual beauty of language and he crafts lines dense and strong enough to bear the crashing forces of history and identity contained within them . . . his work is wrenching, lovely, and powerfully seductive.”—Poetry Project NewsletterWithin the intimate, enlightened, and dazzling linguistic flights of these poem-letters, Mark McMorris engages a world that has experienced “continuous combat since Helen gave Paris a flower / at least since the Bronze Age of Agamemnon’s armada.”Born in Jamaica, Mark McMorris has won the Contemporary Poetry Series prize and has been a finalist for the Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize. He teaches at Georgetown University where he directs the Lannan Literary Programs.
