My Kill Adore Him - Paperback
by Paul Mart?ez Pompa (Author)
My Kill Adore Him is a collection of poems from Andr駸 Montoya Poetry Prize-winner Paul Mart?ez Pompa. With a unique, independent voice, Mart?ez Pompa interrogates masculinity, race, language, consumerism, and cultural identity in poems that honor los olvidados, the forgotten ones, who range from the usual suspects brutalized by police to factory workers poisoned by their environment, from the victim of a homophobic beating in the boys' bathroom to the body of Juan Doe at the Cook County Coroner's Office. Some of the poems rely on somber, at times brutal, imagery to articulate a political stance while others use sarcasm and irony to deconstruct political stances themselves.
Paul Mart?ez Pompa teaches composition and creative writing at Triton College in River Grove, Illinois. His chapbook Pepper Spray was published in 2006.
