Synopsis

The poems in Disposable explore the value of labor and consumerism amid the Appalchian, American, and global late-stage Capitalocene. Moving between urban and rural landscapes through central and southern Ohio and across North Carolina, noting how plastic bags litter roadside ditches, how commuters form traffic jams, and how people behave toward service workers, these poems provide ways of looking at the world around us that disrupt economic powers and force us to think about what really matters.
