Denver Butson’s fifth book of poetry “The Scarecrow Alibis” won the Vern Rutsala Poetry Prize and was published by Cloudbank Books in 2022.The Scarecrow Alibis, National Book Award Winning Novelist wrote ‘“These are wonderful poems — sharp, transgressive, funny, alluring and extraordinarily powerful.  They knock our comfortable balance all to hell,and then they help stitch our imaginations back together again.” In 2020, he won the William Matthews Poetry prize from The Asheville Poetry Review, judged by Ilya Kaminsky. Also in 2020, he wrote the afterword for Jim Harrison’s posthumous “Collected Ghazals” (Copper Canyon Press). Denver frequently works with musicians and visual artists, has published his own visual work with found photos, and has done voice overs for award-winning short films. In 2023, he wrote the “liner poems” for Mat Maneri Quartet’s CD “Ash”, and he has appeared with Maneri as a duo, as a trio with pianist Lucian Ban, and with Maneri’s quartet on a number of dates to celebrate the album’s release. He has also worked extensively with guitarist Marco Cappelli and his “Italian Surf Academy”. Denver’s poetry has been featured on National Public Radio, has been nominated for Pushcart Prizes, and is in the Library of Congress’s Poetry 180 program, curated by (then) US Poet Laureate Billy Collins, who says about Denver: “Here is a poet who is wild, frenzied, and refreshingly mad. His imagination unlocks for us the cells of reason and sets us loose in a world of dizzying possibilities.”  He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
