Ariel Riveros, Commoning (dB3)

Book autodescription: Chords of time. Common places where you can get stuck and thrive. A mad survivalist's loot. From homeless to discarded pocket cathedrals to return back to a citadel after years of science and sands.

'In this small collection of poems, Ariel Riveros shares with us a deep and wide  range of subjects/themes all intrinsically  permeated with his own and very particular schizoanalytic perception/feelings/fears of the world (his own Universe/Cosmome). Commoning is a remarkable  example of hybrid poetry: an awesome/ so intense blend of experimental, conceptual,  surreal, beat and Latin-Australian Neo barococo poetry- and Ariel's first language is English. Highly recommended reading.' - Mario Licón Cabrera

'A star caught a devil eavesdropping;
And shot down, a flame burning in its wake;
Like a horseman in the desert who has lost his turban;
It ends fluttering behind him.” Shihab Al Din al-Nuwayri (1316) describing a comet. Happy 2018 Monsieur!' - Adam Raffel to me on New Years Day 2018

'not Chronos' fool' - Alise Blayney

'Sounds like Albert's famous Gedankenexperiment that convinced him gravity acted in a curved space-time. Great minds dream alike' - Dr Frederick Green
