King of Infinite Space

Written during Covid and with the support of the Tupelo Press 30/30 Project, these short lyrics attempt to explore the preoccupations on one mind during quarantine while revisiting Shakespeare's Hamlet. Moving from intimacy to isolation, from the past to the future, from dream to reality, from exterior to interior, they find that the questions that trouble a prince in Denmark might not be too removed from those of anyone in contemporary America.
