Celebrating his 70th year, Tim Seibles presents
With No Hat, a new collection with a long history. Energized and original,
With No Hat also offers a retrospective of Seibles' life and career--including his signature sassy villanelles; pop up cameos of cartoon characters; meditations on aging, death, identity, and at-one-ment with all beings; and leading the parade--the main character: the poem itself--lithe and mischievous--not only bareheaded, but in the full glory of his birthday suit. Yeats says, "I made my song a coat...but there's more enterprise in walking naked."
With No Hat enterprises--strides, sprints, gavottes, and tiptoes through a life work of forging imagination into unforgettable tableaus, spanning self and other, and embracing and assessing, with Seibles' empathic but cold eye, our culture and our lives in mortal crisis.
