Poetry. CAConrad describes ORIZABA: A VOYAGE WITH HART CRANE as "one of the most important literary ventures into Gender Questioning, told through the magic of Hart Crane with the magic hand of Stacy Szymaszek. If this isn't essential reading at the moment then it will be very soon!" ORIZABA was written in 2004 in Milwaukee and revised in Brooklyn in 2007. It appears here with a selection from the serial poem "Hyperglossia" entitled "The Eustace Poems."
