In Deep Code, John Coletti explores "side language," as a subset of other languages, whether slang or metaphor, to communicate and obfuscate. With a fragmentation more cubist than language poetry, Coletti portrays urban experience, from power relations and personal loss to nights among city dwellers fashioning language into something both recognizable and mysterious.

Praise for Deep Code:

"A sonic surrealist typewriter clacks in rhythm across Colletti's brow. Read it in his sweet-eye glance: poetry grams of tender touch. Tuff cookie meat! & mystery. Shit is electric wire awesome stuff."??Thurston Moore

"In Deep Code, we walk hand-in-hand with a street smart and tenderhearted city boy who, wanting ?ALLLLLLL the experience”, is immersed and so immerses the reader in contemporary cacophonies where ?things collide” at a pace both expansive and measured. John Coletti expertly props our ears to what’s striking and dare I say beautiful in the terrifying realities of this world. This book is ?at ease / with not being at ease” and that, for me, is a guidepost. Reading Deep Code is like eating some kind of perfected pop rocks?all the colorful action, and just as true, but without the saccharine hangover."?Alli Warren
