Remanence

Poetry. "As Ron Silliman has written, 'Attention is all.' The poems in REMANENCE are supremely attentive to the world--or rather to the traces it leaves in our brains. They also make a study of misperception and error. This is a form of meditation. Much of the book is composed of five-line poems, each long line a semi-separate thought, a probe. Each a kind of echolocation. Gently, insistently, they bring us news of our position"--Rae Armantrout.
