Publisher's Synopsis
Exploring marginal lives and obscured voices through intimate, interior territories that are as much metaphysical as physical, this collection of poetry uses a fresh, cinematic approach to the long poem form and teems with engaged responses to paintings, photographs, and film. With the totemic tattoo and the metrics of flight as governing metaphors, these poems make shamanic forays into psychic spaces and chart the creative effort to recover and restore deep energies.
