Preface
2019 has been a year of reckoning—from inquiries in D.C., to staggering statistics on the effects of climate change. Our wealth of data and far-reaching media platforms allow us to list facts and share images in real-time.
In an increasingly codified world, the effects of our words and actions are often presented to us rapidly, perhaps even intrusively. How can the poet compete with the rapid-fire sign and signifier—the canned experience, the summary, the streaming footage?
