Henry J. Morro's CORPSES OF ANGELS is a stunning debut of powerful and tender poems about identity, the gender wars and survival. These poems reveal the beauty and terror of awakening in a new country, searching for the touchstones of memory, reaching back and finding the language of peasants and machetes, of machine guns and priests, of gods and flesh. Henry Morro's poems exude a gross beauty which explodes the heart, cause a delicious pain, leaves the victim yearning--Wanda Coleman.
