Dear wild abandon: Dear wild abandon, -- We are not birds -- Explain yourself -- Among the beautiful illusions -- Poem written on the mirror of her skin -- Dear man on fire, -- Tragic figure in a rearview -- Moon -- what I know of the moon -- Strip mall -- Birds of paradise -- Before sleep takes us -- Swallows built their nest around it -- When we were giant -- Again I strike your window in full flight -- Dear artificial heart, -- Pledge of allegiance -- Face of Jesus in my bite bruise -- Laundromat at the end of the world -- Dear special theory or relativity, -- You can hear it throught the cumulative heartbeats -- You never touched me -- they molt in hopes of airier plumage -- Dear quark, -- Prove you wrong -- End -- Dear catastrophe

متن يادداشت
"Working with brevity and compression, Andrew Michael Roberts first imagines how small he can go with a poem and still maintain some sort of emotional or imagistic center. Then, released from this limitation, the rest of his playful, unexpected poems expand to fill a world with imagery, emotion, and sound." "What Roberts calls "simply a book of small poems" grew out of his obsessions with time and catastrophe and love and abandonment - what is always possible, almost attained, but lost at the last minute. When something ends or when everything ends, something else must always happen next - what will it be, and who will be there to name and love and destroy it?"--Jacket
