“Abecedarian poems allow me to dig at the very roots of the English language. It’s why I love books [. . .] that allow me to more deeply discover and use the materialist history of the English language in my writing.”

The American alphabet ends like every American factory ends. Zombies wandering around on Zoom. The new zoology.

[Los Angeles Review of Books @LAReviewofBooks]

“These poems are at once traces and interpretations of these events, ambiguously; as both a part of this history and a belated representation of it, this writing layers time and refracts its violence.” David Sherman reads "When the Smoke Cleared." https://t.co/uZUnDWSZUA
