Inside Everyone I Have Ever Slept With 1963-1995--the real Tracey Emin's Tent--Emin appliqu d 100+ names to the inside walls, making a highly intimate space that blurs the line between art and reality. Jake Bauer's collection of poems inhabits that same space, leaning into the surreal in order to mine questions of what it means to be a maker in this world. To make art. To make love. To make yourself. To have been made. Ranging from charismatic narratives to haunting portraits of imagined artists to collaged wafts of thought, these poems build their own universe where anything is possible. They invite you inside. It's exciting. But remember, tents are flammable.
