Composed of five movements, bicycle's predominant imaginings, that of circles and bridges, bond the worlds of the Americas through all their interior levels. In such marriage--where these interiors settle in silence and repose, where attachment and aversion are seen as different sides of one coin, where the wheels turn to resist and to empower the nameless, where refuge locations are made to allow the liminal to resolve itself and transcend--bicycle's America unleashes frame-breaking force to bare these uncharted worlds within our supposed divided countries and continents. Harrison's poetic opens spaces where all dichotomies come together as an boundaryless egg of being; here, without and beyond language, the poetry of bicycle agitates and argues what is most real be witnessed in completion as a shapely gourd throbbing with prayers for both these unities and these differences, for the reception and the flowing through of a Being refusing to be stilled.

Harrison, Roberto: -

Poet Roberto Harrison was born in Oregon to Panamanian parents; he and his family moved to Panama when he was a year old, and then to Delaware in 1969. Harrison pursued studies in mathematics and computer science as an undergraduate; after a year of graduate work in mathematics at Indiana University in Bloomington, he traveled in the United States, Europe, and North Africa.

Harrison's collections of poetry include Os (subpress, 2006), Counter Daemons (Litmus Press, 2006), bicycle (Noemi Press, 2015), culebra (Green Lantern Press, 2016), Bridge of the World (Litmus Press, 2017), Yaviza (Atelos, 2017), as well as many chapbooks. Counter Daemons makes use of computer science and programming terminology. Harrison edited the poetry journal Crayon with Andrew Levy from 1997 to 2008, and he is also the editor of the Bronze Skull Press Chapbook series and coeditor for the Resist Much/Obey Little anthology. In 2008 a show of his drawings and journal entries, entitled Ineffable Isthmus, was featured at the Woodland Pattern Book Center gallery. Harrison is the Milwaukee Poet Laureate for 2017-2019, where he lives with his wife, poet Brenda Cárdenas.
