"The Owl" ("the dark steps I climb are lit up / by his Eye magnetic to the moon") is brilliant and evocative, and fairly typical of the level of writing to be found here. Visionary, lyrical, and hypnotic. Title Bed of Sphinxes Subtitle Selected Poems Author Philip Lamantia Publisher City Lights Publishers Title First Published 1997 Format Paperback Nb of pages 141 p.
