City of Corners

"While others are busy catching their own reflection in the storefront of poetry, \[John\] Godfrey goes to work on the damage and squalor of the overlooked. His genius rings true."-Peter Gizzi *With an enemy* *like daylight who needs* *the psychology dime* *Hips do the work* *and I cross the world* A longtime resident of Manhattan's Lower East Side, **John Godfrey** works as a registered nurse in New York City, where he cares for homebound AIDS patients in Brooklyn and Queens. *City of Corners* is his sixth collection of poetry.
