      slipknot, aerosol
       
      or invertebrate, a thing
      spineless
       
      drawn out in sections and rewired
      to complete the circuit
       
      hot light
      in each alcove, insomniac
      the green yellow eyes
       
      of a cat, blinking
      in the dark
       
      nothing put to sleep.

      from #35 - Summer 2011

      “When I write, I look to fracture language in novel and unexpected ways. Perhaps because of this, I’m particularly interested in poetry that walks the line between person and place. There are points along this interface where it becomes impossible to convey experience with conventional language; I seek out these linguistic blind spots and work to reveal their shape.”
