Synopsis

Poetry. This book of poems features Svalina's 60+ page epic, "Above the Fold," about which he notes: The poem is about the process of watching things happen in your name both across the globe & in front of you, & the ingestion of media images that represent the state of the world & its publicities & privacies of pain. People do awful things to one another & then other people say 'aren't those awful things awful' & then there is also kissing.
