Poetry. Phillip Foss trains his nomadic eye and ear on the interdependence of all things?rocks, birds, stars, rivers, women, men, trees, insects?as they migrate with and as each other in the entwined cycle of existence. The strategic absence of punctuation in Foss's poems blurs the cultural, linguistic boundaries between what are normally seen as discrete objects, unveiling a synesthetic, syncretic wordscape in which an "earthen house on billion year old continent floats / west toward the pacific sans / sail sans compass no pilot." STUDY IN TRANSHUMANCE?Foss's fifth book with Singing Horse Press?is a harrowing yet heartening book for those willing to breathe its rarified air.
