Riffs

Riffs is the story of a passionate love affair, told in vintage Lee style-with whoops, deep chords, and headlong improvisational arcs.

We hear Bach, Bo Diddley, Bird; the news is heartache and being. Celebratory, catastrophic, the poem tracks ways in which eros and our lives are made mutually accountable. Riffs is a landmark achievement from the poet of Civil Elegies and The Gods.
