Synopsis

Skip Fox’s new collection of poems is haunted by endings: his father’s death, his own approaching end, and, especially, the projected end of the human species in Earth’s sixth major extinction. In the volume’s forty-two pieces--whose subjects range from the nature of self, words, Yahweh, nothingness, appositives, prepositions, dreams, expression, and the quotidian--extinction of species appears like a Wagnernian leitmotif or a common thread. The poetry is experimental, and many pieces are in demanding spatial forms, perhaps challenging the reader’s notion of the arbitrary. At first glance, perhaps, dark, the work is leavened with humor, mind’s play, and the belief that even as we approach our conclusion we can still pay attention to spirit’s essentials, have a deeper appreciation of nature and beauty, and discover a profound sense of meaning in this late historical stage.
