Description

JOHN K. SAMSON 'EVERYTHING YOU DO'

'Everything You Do,' Poems by John K. Samson. This is a 32-page zine of poetry by the Weakerthans frontman, released circa 1994.

This collection of early poetry is very rare, with hardly any information about it available online. These early poems contain Samson's trademark eloquence and observations, finding emotional resonance and meaning in what others might deem daily routine. Printed by Plap Press in Winnipeg.

This zine was personally given to me by John K. Samson after a Propagandhi show in 1994. It contains 20 poems, titles below:

I Am

Socrates, The Young Offender

Sounds Familiar

Friend

On the Futility of Distance and Filing Cabinets

The Heart Is a Badly Built Bridge

Lo Ve

Sometimes on Nights Like These

Location

Deceived

Reconstruction Site (not the same lyrics as the later Weakerthans song)

The Clinic

I Walk Myself to Sleep

Summer Tour, 1994

Failure and Return

Road Trip

Employee in Training

The Morning Mantra of Naomi Lakritz

Stalling

Small Completion


Zine is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", folded and saddle stapled. Very good condition with some small flaws (visible in the photos): some rust on staples, light wear on back cover, light wear on right side of title page, tiny dent on corners. No rips, tears, folds, writing or dogears. Zine will be shipped in poly sleeve and sturdy cardboard protection. Reasonable reserve set.
High bidder pays $4.00 Media Mail shipping or $8.00 Priority Mail shipping in the U.S. $8.00 to Canada, $12.00 to Europe, $14.00 to Asia. Insurance at option and expense of buyer. I use sturdy mailers. Please see my feedback for a long list of satisfied buyers, and feel free to write with any questions. Thanks!
