2021 Golden Poppy Award Winner for Poetry - Chosen by the California Independent Booksellers
Alliance2022 California Book Award FinalistPolitically astute, filled with wisdom and great
humanity, this is poetry meant to conjure a healing and provoke a confrontation, an invitation to a
journey through Black America.quot Words are not the revolution itself, Eisen-Martin seems to
say, and yet this book disturbed me more than any other I read this year. It reminds me that poetry
can rewire our thinking12 can actually change our minds12 by using nothing like the rote language
we17 re so used to hearing in speech and in prose. It can jolt us out of patterns, back into
intelligence.quot 12 The New York Times, quot The Best Poetry of 2021quot A rhapsodic follow-up
to Tongo Eisen-Martin's Heaven is All Goodbyes, this collection further explores themes of love
and loss, family and faith, refracted through the lens of Black experience. These poems honor
intellectual tradition and ancestral knowledge while blazing an entirely new path, recording and
replaying the poet's sensory travels through America, from its packed metropolises to desolate
anytowns. Radical, outraged, knowing, wry, and deeply humane, these are poems of survival that
soar with a vision of collective liberation.Praise for Blood on the Fog:quot Continuing the lofty
tradition of Langston Hughes, June Jordan, and Amiri Baraka, Tongo Eisen-Martin has emerged
on center stage as today's premier revolutionary poet. A master craftsman and a sensitive artist,
he reserves his sledgehammer words for the cruelty of imperialism. He should not only be read12
he should be studied.quot 12 Gerald Hornequot In Blood on the Fog, find a poetry of 'swinging
type body language' where the swinging swings like Ellington and Ali combined, knocking you out
inside and out, and turning you around in this extraordinary book.quot 12 Terrance Hayesquot
Black poetry has got to get its head around the deranged way language and the world expect us to
be and live again. Tongo has figured this out, is feeling out how to vein the poem with his own life,
and that's why I love his work.quot 12 imone Whitequot This is no precious, immortal-aspirational
monologue no autocrat stone of finality no poor folks as thought experiments. More fugue than
state. More disturbance as the groove. If poems are for anything, I feel like it must be this.quot 12
Justin Phillip Reedquot Blood on the Fog is the illest artifact of time travel I've ever experienced.
Tongo Eisen-Martin takes us to a tomorrow and yesterday where we stand12 contorted and
mangled12 but oh so beautiful, faithful and free.quot 12 Kiese Laymonquot Whether speaking
rhyme in slant, calling forward Medgar Evers, or the spirituality of an oppressed people, Eisen-
Martin offers stanza after stanza as a sunrise. Each poem leads us towards our liberation. This
means these poems are heavy in their desire to free our current state of stoic apathy. This means
Tongo Eisen-Martin's poetic legacy will live forever.quot 12 Mahogany L. Browne
