Winner of the 2003 Main Street Rag Poetry Book Award as judged by Joy Harjo. "In these poems I hear Charles Bukowski, Adrian Louis and see Dagwood in a cheap Elvis suit leaning into a curve. These poems aren't easy. They're wired by a couple hundred horsepower and loud rock. They're fast and hard. Watch out." -Joy Harjo. "Nearing Narcoma is hell-bent breathless more damned enjambing fun than a merry-go-round of monks stoked on love & death juice-hyped up on "Shempish" TV rural real and surreal sexual exhaust and exhaustion so thick you could backfloat on it..." -Roger Weingarten. "Matt Morris is just the kind of balls-to-the-wall, full-speed-ahead language junkie that I want, I need, I demand to show me around the amped out, anything goes world in which we do our best to live." -Charles Harper Webb.
