Cover reveal! So thrilled to feature Melissa Newman’s art on the cover of my next book of poetry, TRYING TIMES TRYING, forthcoming from Carnegie Mellon University Press this fall. (Melissa’s piece is called “Hysterical.”)

Here's the companion poem to "Action in the Infinitive," which I posted earlier today. This one is called "Infinite Gyre of Possible Ends" and also appeared in @hopkinsreview.bsky.social, with thanks again to @doramalech.bsky.social! (Click image for alt-text.)

to swaddle the rifle, to wipe clean its lip / to sponge dried milk from an infant’s cheek / to dribble the oil, to torch it completely / to scrape the whole whale from the beach / to stack gold plates, illustrate utopia / to soak the sun’s light from the pitch of the roof / to pace time, its sugared circularity / to unfold its mountainous chain / to husk corn, shuck calcium from mollusks / to shear the lichen-eaten willow oak / to garble the language, gum the words / to tattoo the script on a canvas of palm / to cradle the cycle, censure the system / to scoop, from the floor, a loose silverfish / to swirl the garbage, to compost the knife / to temper the rage in the hurricane’s eye / to filter the fire, to breed the abyss / to pluck bottle caps from ribcages of birds
