Reminiscent of the City Lights Pocket Poets Series in both size and scope, these 26 prose poems explore, then quietly explode, what we know of familiar terrains. Whether taking time for rest after a visit from houseguests, deciphering the peculiar rituals of church, or recalling a string of old loves come and gone, each speaker occupies a space between quiet and clamor. Her domain is the bedrock beneath love, friendship, work, and family. She may break it apart and stitch it back together, but the seams are always visible. These poems aim to complicate how we situate ourselves in a wounded world, obsessively pulling up the bandage.
