What obsesses Halliday in Losers Dream On is how to recognize reality without relinquishing the pleasure and creativity and courage of our dreaming. Halliday's poetry exploits the vast array of dictions, idioms, rhetorical maneuvers, and tones available to real-life speakers (including speakers talking to themselves).
Intends to seek ways of using the smart playfulness of such poets as Frank O'Hara and Kenneth Koch to explore life's emotional mysteries - dire and hilarious - from the perpetual dissolving of our past to the perpetnal frustration of our cravings for egotriumph, for sublime connection with an erotically idealized Other, and for peace of spirit.
