“So gorgeous. Exactly the kind of poetry I love, from the subject matter to the prose itself. Made me tear up a bunch. Kaveh Akbar is a treasure.”
“Withhold the accident. Withhold the tiny aches. Withhold the body's capacity for desiccation, for ineffable grief. There are no new worlds left to dream.”
