Description: "In Elegy for Desire, Luis Omar Salinas has crafted visionary poems about growing older and looking back on a rich life of poetry. In this quiet yet hallucinatory volume, Salinas offers us a prismatic collection of odes, elegies, and cantos of desire - complex poems about our place in the world. Poems to be savored in solitude, or better still with an intimate companion."--Jacket.
