Popular Music

About this book

A meditation on messages Popular Music asks: how does art make itself heard? The poems of Kelly Schirmanns debut full-length collection offer a unique voice investigating the spaces betweenbetween the singer and the audience; the lyrics and the message. Like a pop song these poems encourage and distract inviting the reader and listener in wanting to tell you things that seem intimate while telling them to everyone. They want to know: is anyone listening? And reader we hope you are.
