These Poems Are Not What They Seem

These Poems Are Not What They Seem

Lauren Milici
5/5 ( ratings)
These Poems Are Not What They Seem is a 56 page anthology of poetic homages to the television show Twin Peaks by various talented contemporary poets and fans of the television show by David Lynch. The book measures 8" x 5", contains color illustrations, a matte textured cover and is saddle stapled.

Some words about the anthology from the publisher and the editors:

"To say that Twin Peaks was an inspiration for me personally is an
understatement. It was a creative right of passage. A vision not just of an
artist at the height of his craft, but of a time and place, a version of American
life and love and suffering that could never be real, yet somehow was more
real than anything I’d ever seen. The contributors to this anthology have also experienced this right of passage. They have loved, as I have loved, an impossible story of humanity and inhumanity, of a cosmic malevolence subverting every mundane aspect of domestic life, and of the devout few who struggle to understand and combat the darkest impulses and machinations of the universe. They have rendered this love, this fascination and passion here into verse."

Jeremy Gaulke, APEP Publications


"These Poems Are Not What They Seem — they are love letters to a piece of art
and the characters that inhabit it. It is a television show that opened the
floodgates of inspiration for those of us who felt small or weird or dead. It
is a river that nourishes endlessly as it floats us and our offerings towards
another generation of seventeen-year-olds seeking survival and self-
awareness in art. Much like the oil that is spilled to make the gateway to the
Black or White Lodges, our contributors spilled dark ink and it opened a
door. Turn the page, like a knob, and see where it takes you."

Kristin Garth, Editor


"Love, lust, drugs, coffee, pie, music. But also demons and things that shouldn’t talk. Are you monster or man? Are you girl or body bag? How do you make it through the night without losing your mind because of the mysteries? But also how do you pick up your pieces in the morning and go to school? Or work? Can you even stop the mysteries from following you? These are poems about people trying to tell their stories. For good and for bad."
