Rebel Lions, Michael McClure's first book of poetry since the
retrospective Selected Poems (1985), spans a decade of profound
personal change and poetic evolution for the author. In an
introductory note, he provides a backdrop for the collection, which
moves from old life to new. McClure's work bursts forth from the
matrix of the physical and spiritual. "Poetry is one of the edges
of consciousness," he asserts. "And consciousness is a real thing
like the hoof of a deer or the smell of a bush of blackberries at
the roadside in the sun." In the first section of Rebel Lions, "Old
Flames," the poems range from the realistic ("Awakening and
Recalling a Summer Hike") to the metaphorical ("The Silken
Stitching"), as the poet addresses a life on the verge of
transformation. The second section, "Rose Rain," exults in a life
transformed through love's alchemy. Rebel Lions closes with "New
Brain," poems affirming the freedom of all humankind and matter in
the eternal now.
