A cabinet of curiosities; a descent/ascent into otherworldly realms that can only be described through the forensics of poetry. Keenly imaginative and deft, imagery-rich, these poems combine iconography and artifacts with an omniscient peculiarity, and at times a downright creepiness that asserts itself viscerally, which is to say, in the very best and most thrilling of ways--like I stayed at the haunted carnival too long.--Tiffany Midge, author of The Woman Who Married a Bear: Poems
