Michael Lassell has been one of the best-kept secrets of contemporary gay poetry. His books Poems for Lost and Un-Lost Boys and Decade Dance are treasured by those who know them. With A Flame for the Touch That Matters, Lassell again demonstrates his ability to move, startle, and enchant. As in all of Lassell's work, the themes concern not simply gay sex and love, but also gay desire and passion. Whether he is mourning friends who have died, bemoaning the problems of finding erotic love as an older gay man, or fantasizing about sex with a young naked man being tattooed by a rough-looking biker, Lassell understands how deeply sex and eroticism runs in all of our lives. With vibrant language and images that disturb as much as they console, Lassell's poetry works its way into our consciousness and dreams like memories and visions over which we have little control.
