City of Corners
“While others are busy catching their own reflection in the storefront of poetry, [John] Godfrey goes to work on the damage and squalor of the overlooked. His genius rings true.” — Peter Gizzi
With an enemy
like daylight who needs
the psychology dime
Hips do the work
and I cross the world
A longtime resident of Manhattan’s Lower East Side, John Godfrey works as a registered nurse in New York City, where he cares for homebound AIDS patients in Brooklyn and Queens. City of Corners is his sixth collection of poetry.
