"Jubilant Thicket teems with the eccentric, strange, and boundlessly authentic - neoclassical poems, social satire, musical suites, limericks and lyrics. There is spleen, salt, and a delicious sarcasm, as Williams finds inspiration in Mahler and Mojo Nixon, William Blake and whimmy-diddles. Always in knowing command, he serves up an admixture of "found" and vernacular language, invented and archaic forms, jokes, shock, literary allusions, and political disgust."--Jacket.
A greeting to the reader -- Meta-fours -- Mahler -- Apple-pie order -- Scumbags from Parnassus -- Bugtussle -- Nude driver threw lard! -- The flower-hunter in the fields -- Homages, elegies & valedictions.
