The 10th Anniversary Edition includes twelve new poems and an introduction by Matthew Wimberley. from “Emissaries”Some mornings when I’m readingearly, no light yet but the table lamp,my left hand will run through scalesalong the spine of the open book. My hands keep their own remembranceburied in fine grooves of flesh. The fingers turn over ignitions, faucets,always attuned to their proper force,knuckles never breaking thingsunless my brain overpowers them. They’ve discovered spectacular terrains,soft enclosures I can never enter again. I send them ahead as scouts for survey,emissaries that flip the lightsin every dark hallway of the future.
