Poetry Hotel: Selected Poems 1963-85

by Joe Rosenblatt

A poet of great range and variety, Joe Rosenblatt’s lines bristle with the energy and vibrations of the natural world. He is probably best known for his originality, his whimsical and often chant-like poems, which move from insect vitality to serpent sinuousness, covering along the way layers of human landscape. Poetry Hotel is a major selection, covering more than two decades of work (1963 - 1985) by Canada’s bon vivant surrealist poet, illustrated with his own line drawings.

Fun play with words but I have no idea what Rosenblatt is talking about most of the time.
