The Palace of Unbearable Feeling

Equally resonant as visual chants or textual mandalas, these 18 poems emerge from the international lineage of concrete poetry. Written during the pandemic in response to prolonged isolation and the perils of a world on tilt, The Palace Of Unbearable Feeling explores the materiality of language while addressing personal and collective issues of loss, right action, consciousness, and possible avenues of renewal. Built as verbal-aural-visual stimulants, the resulting multivalent constructions present a variety of opportunities for contemplation.
