Larry Sawyer was an American poet, essayist, fiction writer, editor, and literary curator whose work moves through disjunction, sonic pressure, lyric compression, political unease, and the unstable textures of contemporary speech. His poems often place fragments of statement, image, quotation, and cultural noise into close contact, allowing rhythm and collision to carry part of the argument.
