The Dunes, and: Cutbanks, and: Messengers
Abstract: "The Dunes": Imperative, this poem is an exhortation to listen, to trace origins across unlikely trajectories. Trust and perception bend along sacred curves. "Cutbanks": Six scenes of dangerous desire in a landscape chiseled by sudden waters, this poem is about being swept away. "Messengers": This poem is an explanation of angelic visitation, the compulsion of creativity, the madness of iteration.
