The theme that struck me was fitting in--or not fitting in--in language, in knowledge, in "we", in family. Dreams of catastrophe and danger--and not knowing what to do or who to go to or with.
There are also a lot of references to people I do not know much about--Simone Weil, Kant, Bataille, Sylvere Lotringer, Ryan Trecartin. While I know some of these names, I do not know enough about any of them to understand the layers of the poems mentioning them. I also don't watch much tv or movies, so that also goes over my head.
My two favorites:
Wounded Adjudication (p 28)
The Death of Thurston Moore (p 91) (I do know who Thurston Moore is, though I too was more of a Joy Division girl.) ( )
