Prof. Emeritus Mark Scroggins Publishes Book of Poetry, Damage

Congratulations to Prof. Emeritus Mark Scroggins on publication of Damage: Poems 1988-2022 with Dos Madres Press.

According to Dos Madres Press:

Damage collects over three decades of Mark Scroggins’s poetry: from the jittery, post-punk influenced work of Anarchy, to the vitriolic time-and-space travelogues of Red Arcadia, to the brutal, pointillistic thrash-jazz miniatures of Torture Garden: Naked City Pastorelles, to the more expansive yet still sardonic poems of Pressure Dressing. These titles are supplemented by a selection of both early and more recent work, all of it marked by Scroggins’s characteristic wit, thoughtfulness, formal innovation, and wistful lyric intelligence.
