Poetry. BIRD BOOK is written in collaboration with a field guide to
North American birds. Each page both borrows and departs from
language found in an individual bird entry. The resulting text is
an investigation into dissolved and dissolving narrative, into the
permeable boundaries between "human" and "natural," and into the
partial and shifting nature of narrative and memory themselves,
"wet and traveling maps." Here, as in bird song, gap and repetition
create their own story. To welcome "accidental field," "to take the
songbird out of your mouth," to examine the ever-shifting
relationship between what we receive and what we project, is to
move through a porous and shared space, affecting and affected,
where "yellow spectacle" hovers over "a suggested house":
"exuberant ground."
