- Re:Zoom -
a book of no return.
How can we return?
We resume,
but never from where we left off.
We continue from
some other place.
This collection of poetry
explores
that place.

Sheri-D Wilson, whose unparallelled writing style is rich
with erotic jazz, infused with a sharp feminist sensibility, and laced
with a dangerous wit, is back with Between Lovers, her fifth collection
of poetry and her strongest to date.
Seamlessly matching word with sound, these poems fly off the page with
lyrical beauty and a rhythmical electric charge that transports you
into Sheri-D's surreal world: an empowering, sensual place where one
can discover what it means to be a woman in the twenty-first century.
In this collection, Sheri-D’s language is brilliantly alive with the
wit, charm, and playfulness she is known for. She reaches into the
soul’s dark abyss and finds that what makes us different is what makes
us the same.
Just what does it mean to be human? Sheri-D Wilson traverses the
extremes of the human condition, as she examines the many entendres of
what it means to be Between Lovers.

Canada's foremost action poet Sheri-D Wilson returns with The
Sweet Taste of Lightning, a sublime new collection of poems that
explore love and mortality with her distinct jazz-inflected
sensibility. Startling and vulnerable, these are poems that speak from
the heart, whether they be sassy missives from the street, or intimate
confessions from one lover to another. There are also the trademark
language stylings that evoke Sheri-D's powerful stage performances,
full of wry, sexy truths. Lightning never tasted sweeter than in the
cool poetic world of Sheri-D Wilson.

Girl's Guide to Giving Head is a rapturous collection of
poems by "action poet" Sheri-D Wilson, in which she furnishes a sensual
and ironic palace of sights, sounds, and pleasures.
For the past ten years, Sheri-D Wilson has established herself as a
spoken-word performer of the higest order, whose compelling stage
presence, often complemented by music and dance, is matched by her
provocative way with words. Her work, rich with humour and pathos,
delves into issues faced by strong modern women, creating a sexualized
feminism that at the same time celebrates life and beauty and art.
Girl's Guide to Giving Head is an instructional manual for life: it is
a book about going up not down... and "head" refers to the intellect;
its "giving," the act of education: teaching and learning about sex and
love and ways
of living. Included in this collection are such works as "Conversations
with a Jealousy Junkie," "Airplane Paula"," "MacSex," "The Grass is
Always Blonder on the Other Side of the Fence," and "The Day I Married
Elvis."

poet for the 21st century.
