In Lovers of Today, Garrett Caples is his most playful and heartfelt.
Here are poems that generously place the reader in a particular poetic
moment that is both elegiac and also wildly entertaining. Taken from a
bar of the same name in New York City, Lovers of Today is a collection
of poetry that pays tribute to friendships including Kevin Killian, John
Ashbery, Joanne Kyger, and Bill Berkson, among others, wherein each poem
is a celebration of life's ephemerality.
