Much like the poems found in \u003cem\u003eThe Feel Trio\u003c\/em\u003e (Letter Machine 2014), which was a National Book Award finalist, and \u003cem\u003eAll That Beauty\u003c\/em\u003e (Letter Machine, 2019), the poems here present Moten's \"shaped prose\" on the page and the dizzying brilliance of both polyphonies and paronomasia. Within this collection, the poems hold an innate quantum curiosity about the infinitude of the present and the ways in which one could observe the history of the future. Poems beget poems, overflowing and flowering, urging deeper etymological investigations. In \u003cem\u003eperennial fashion presence falling\u003c\/em\u003e, Moten approaches the sublime, relishing that intermediary space of microtonal thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoetry.
