    "Drew Pisarra's extraordinary sonnets provoke and involve the reader's response to the poet's personal experiences, energized scenarios of love, sex and irony!" - Rochelle Owens, Salt & Core "Periodic Boyfriends is what you get when you pair Grindr problems with the human need to rationalize existence: carefully wrought stanzas filled with wit, humor, loss, and longing." - Patrick Key, Grand Little Things "Each of these powerful, provocative, sexy sonnets is a play unto itself with two characters wrestling - coming together, falling away, then perhaps back again. Pisarra is a lover in every sense. His passion and respect for the struggle is stunningly expressed in this hilarious and dazzling book." - Linda Manning, Perfect Love "Drew Pisarra's brilliant new collection reminds a reader of what those randy geniuses, the Elizabethan and 17th-century sonneteers, knew well: it's an elegant whore of a form, bending graciously to the whims and passions of a canny writer. Pisarra is one of those. A rare one." - Clarinda Harriss, Dirty Blue Voice

    "Infinity Standing Up" tells the messy, rowdy, off-again/on-again story of a passionate love affair in the form of 40 generally Shakespearean sonnets, each one a square box of 14 lines, 10 beats to a line, rhyming true to the form: abab, cdcd, efef, gg. Each one is a meticulously crafted dog-crate for the untrained puppy of love.Of course these are not the first sonnets to attempt the task of wrestling a doggish passion into order. Poet Drew Pisarra joins a long line of lovers who have used the sonnet form to rebuild walls and repair roofs after a hurricane of love and loss. These sonnets are Shakespearean, in form and also spirit, in their celebration of the lustful male body, in their evocation of a dark young rival, in their hope and wonder and ultimately bitter betrayal and loss."These poems navigate the rapids of desire in a form that wa made for twists and turns of feeling, from the derangement of lust to rueful self-reflection. Drew Pisarra honors the Shakespearean sonnet's tradition of wit and economy, while simultaneously delivering the pleasurable shock of 2st-century idiom." Joan Larkin, author of "Cold River" (Lambda Literary Award)
