The poems in Adult Night at Skate World sift out the glitter in the gravel, unearthing both heartbreak and moments of transcendence in
the seemingly mundane. These are songs of the anti-poetic, overlooked
and assumed lost cause: Craigslist Missed Connections, getting snubbed
at a rock show, middle-aged roller rink attendees, the class loser, a
swan longing to mate with a paddleboat. But instead of scorn, they
invite our laughter. Instead of dismissal, compassion. In place of cool
cynicism, awe.
