With his trademark wit and inventiveness, David Trinidad \"plays\" with these forms as if they were toys. He creates a Wikipedia cento in which each line illustrates how little is known of sixty-five ancient Greek poets. He gives us an itinerary of \"Things to Do\" in ten 1970s disaster films. He catalogs Sylvia Plath's recipe cards and all the references to beer in a book by Bernadette Mayer. His subjects are as \"fun\" as his forms: pop singer Dusty Springfield, Marcel Proust, Bashō, Hollywood movies and actresses, old cartoons, a prom dress thief loose in a girls' dorm. But \"play\" does not preclude seriousness, as Trinidad addresses physical scars, encounters with homophobia, and the wonders and wounds of childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Trinidad\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eSleeping with Bash\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eō\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDigging to Wonderland\u003c\/i\u003e, and\u003ci\u003e Peyton\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003ePlace: A Haiku Soap Opera\u003c\/i\u003e.
