Fault Tree (Paperback)

fault tree is a book-length poem divided into three connected effects stemming from one undesired state: time. This text poses time as a governing body overthrown by a simple mental repositioning—only ‘inescapable’ because so few have tried to escape. Using interrupted narrative and a deceptively simple diction, the poem follows one character through his quest to wrangle time and prove his own sanity as well as time’s true nature. Through his relating to time, questions of place, class, politics, and culture are cast as the inextricable results of time’s manipulation.
