Poetry. The companion book to SNAILHORN, with essay and drawings, is ENTERING YONI SPACE ON THE POURING PIVOT OF MY OWN LINGARAJ. From the afterword: "The Kamasutra conjures four basic types or orders of women, each a different shape, a different animal-type, a different elemental persuasion and humor.
