The Tigers, They Let Me by Anis Mojgani (Paperback)
The Tigers, They Let Me by Anis Mojgani (Paperback)
There are poets who tell you how the world looks. In his sixth collection, Anis Mojgani reminds you what it could be.
Drawing inspiration from Rexroth and Lorca, Mojgani explores the joyful generosity of desire. This collection embraces the vulnerability of love, a refusal to trade the quiet moments for superficial gratification. Mojgani has a way of making room for people inside his poems, ready to open the cage and run his fingers through the tiger's fur.
I have come
to steal you
from the things
that have stolen you
from yourself
