L a poem by Max Bridge comes in its capacity as cellulose. "Eyeliner" brings together the work of recent years, some have already appeared in blogs, magazines, books, television and radio broadcasting. Not to mention the numerous events such as poetry slams and readings in which these verses were represented, compared, discussed. A poem that comes to paper, then, with the detachment that you can try for a medium that is no longer a priority for poetry, but it is still useful and fascinating. The papers published in this collection consists of five linear moments interspersed with heterogeneous visual interventions. The speed and the resulting dall'afflato dromologico I declared a "total poetry, wild fruits, hedonistic and architectural" characterize the author's work. In "Eyeliner" the word, thrown in everyday life, does not give in to the gray anti-heroic - that is gripping the literature - but transvola, glides into the night, based autocratic party, in an ironic mimesis compound, intentional objects controdolore, the drainage of waste appropriate parties in the alphabet. This does not exempt one from, through meditative stages, angular, less pop aspects of this: the feeling of being stateless for example. In these passages of low tension, the tendency panic is the sign of continuity, the "loop". Because this collection is named "Eyeliner" is a question that the author did not respond, perhaps to mark the visual and imaginative, or perhaps the evocative power exercised by an object that puts its users in an elegant and penetrating state of grace. A contemporary praise of makeup, a mask of strength to cross the posthumanity and not concede anything to the supporters of the disaster. The High Bridge is a word poetry and played army, which seeks contact with the material. Word that has no desire peace and grows well in the blanks identifying the direction, to indicate the otherness of the experience.
