Double Zero
Double Zero is the inventive new collection by Chris Hosea, the poet selected by John Ashbery for the Walt Whitman Award from the Academy of American Poets. Drawing on popular song, contemporary multimedia art, and personal experience, Double Zero presents tuneful, densely meaningful lyrics. Like collaged sheet music, these poems offer a wealth of opportunities for creative interpretation and performance.

These rating are pretty generous, and I think attributed to the author's pedigree rather than the work itself. It's not a double zero, but I'm tired of year-end awards for poetry going to obtuse and pedantic collections that are inaccessible to the vast majority of folks. This collection could be the poster-child of that.
