Poetry. SCATTERED DAMAGE is a sharply observed, lightly worded work -- not about daily life but with the realistic dissonance suggestive of actual experience. combustible elements form a triangular costume of/ unbelievable proportions, enchanting our evening/ with orbicular accessories gone mad, a little like a/ pumpkin over-reacting to starch or harpsichord/ sonatas or minute particulars of invisible kumquats/ spreading erratically over alpine meadows in a frenzy of harebrained thoughts ... (a small conceit). Some work in SCATTERED DAMAGE has appeared in Key Satch(el), Misc. Proj., Tinfish and Mike and Dale's Younger Poets. Saddlestapled chapbook.
