Brant Lyon has--in increasing order of difficulty--eaten a guinea pig beside Macchu Picchu, climbed the Himalayas to catch a sunrise, driven a New York City cab, taught himself Arabic to open a cyber cafe near the great Pyramids, tickled the ivories at Carnegie Hall, and… written poetry for the past decade or so! He’s got some printed in Rattle, Lullwater Review, Medicinal Purposes, BigCityLit, and other journals, other of it anthologized in The Company We Keep (Poet Warrior 2003), and in his chapbook, Your Infidel Eyes (Poets Wear Prada 2006), now in its second printing. Brant otherwise conflates poetry with music, as a composer and performer, both in his peripatetic/sporadic ‘jazzoetry’ reading series, Hydrogen Jukebox, and in his newly released poemusic CD, Beauty Keeps Laying Its Sharp Knife Against Me (Logochrysalis 2008).
