New Book

Before I moved to Brockport, I corresponded with Tom Holmes. During that correspondence he translated some poems I sent him. Poems that explain the world I lived in. The book, Negative Time, has recently been accepted for publication by Pudding House and is due out soon. Costs $10.

Here's the preface:

The following poems were sent to me from another universe. They are part of a correspondence between Semlohsa Moht, former Poet Laureate of the former Gegôré, and myself, as we tried to explain our lives, cultures, sciences, and politics to each other. I have translated Moht’s poems for this collection. As will become obvious, as it did to me when translating, his universe is similar to ours except time moves in a contrary direction to ours. I hope these translations have captured what he was trying to share with me. And I hope I have provided a literary wormhole between our universes.
