Synthesizing gravity: selected prose

A consideration of poetry

Derichment

I go to AWP

Specks

Notes on the danger of notebooks

Do you like it?

The authority of lightness

Inedible melons

Fidget and gnash

I demand to speak with God

Wang-pang-woo-poo-woof-woof

The trail of the hunted wolf

Only doubts

Flying

The abrasion of loneliness

On a poem by Hopkins

Radiantly indefensible

All love all beauty

On a poem by Dickinson

No time for anything but repetition

The end of the party

All the nothing

Listening to Williams

Con and pro

The double

Reading before breakfast

To be a miniature is to be swallowed by a miniature whale

Against influence

On forgetting

The edges of time

The poet takes a walk

My house.
