"Ken Babstock is a wonderful and spirited poet, his work is full of musicality, syncopation, wit, and formal acuity, it's all good."—Peter Gizzi"The flavor of this poetry is complex—it will have to be consumed in small amounts like a sipping tequila. It inebriates quickly. It imparts a convivial brilliance to life. And it is not without its sinister edge."—Ange MlinkoWith poems on perfect blue and a sonnet sequence situated on a derelict NSA surveillance station on a Berlin hill, On Malice assembles evacuated forms, polysemy, prayer, and perverse chatter into poems that enact our paranoia. Channeling Walter Benjamin's son, William Hazlitt, John Donne, and Dick Cheney, they are lyric in their sonic and affective register but coldly methodological in their invented structures and illusions. You finish reading it. You cannotfinish reading it. Ice caughtin the can, later, the well. What shall I be worried about,the coward well and the ice doessuch a lot. They know nothing of cantilevered blown-out shellswho feed their worrylike veal barns. The dome's aerial my lodestar and icon, the squirrelat dusk in the post-informational gloamingcan never not finish reading it as song Ken Babstock is the author of Methodist Hatchet , which won the Griffin Poetry Prize. His previous titles, Mean , Days into Flatspin , and Airstream Land Yacht , hold nominations for the Governor General's Award and the Winterset Prize.
