Advance Praise for The Seed Bank

"Gabe Gomez composes spare and elliptical poems whose 'envelopes of waiting seed yield / an epistolary of vine and gerunds.' These poems marvelously  conflate endings and beginnings, emptiness and fullness."

--Arthur Sze
 

"In this startling series of linked poems, Gabe Gomez sets into dynamic tension a set of desires that seem at first radically incompatible: the will to change, to “plant” the new and to evolve into new selves, new formations, and the need for history, continuity, loyalty and its architecture, the stability of form. Gomez makes powerful elegant poems of these tensions and attentions, inventing verbal structures to embody the new growth as it “grips down” (as W C Williams has it) “and begins to awaken.”

--Stephen Tapscott
