A collection of poems about family, nature, and everyday life.
from Dear Snake: "Six feet of diamond skin wrapped tight / as packing cord around the little chest / of drawers that was my mother's. // When did you invade the room where I will sleep / this one last night—the room my grandparents slept / in their whole lives?"
from Sign in Cemetery: "NO PERPETUAL CARE // No weeds pulled. No / grass mowed. No / tombstones dusted. No // dead flowers cleared. All care / strictly temporary. After / a certain point, we do not // promise tears or eulogies, we leave / the dead to their own devices."

This is a phenomenal collection of poetry. The language is concise and the depths profound. Highly recommend.
