Watch for the new collection of poetry from Terrance Hayes, American Sonnets for My Past and Future Assassin, coming in June of 2018

In his fourth collection, Terrance Hayes investigates how we construct experience. With one foot firmly grounded in the everyday and the other hovering in the air, his poems braid dream and reality into a poetry that is both dark and buoyant. Cultural icons as diverse as Fela Kuti, Harriet Tubman, and Wallace Stevens appear with meditations on desire and history. We see Hayes testing the line between story and song in a series of stunning poems inspired by the Pecha Kucha, a Japanese presenta-tion format. This innovative collection presents the light- headedness of a mind trying to pull against gravity and time. Fueled by an imagination that enlightens, delights, and ignites, Lighthead leaves us illuminated and scorched.

A nice kitchen sponge holder
I like this kitchen sponge holder , it easily holds two brushes and a dish soap or a hand soap bottle . Quality is sturdy and drains out the water . It’s a small compact holder so saves space . I have used it for some months now and don’t see any rust forming. Works well , worth buying.

Small but perfect
It’s small but holds all my dishwashing tools like brushes and pads without getting the back of my sink wet while draining. It’s really useful for me!
