Volo2023

*As 2022 wore into 2023, people bothered to wonder: are the Twenties here yet? Volo: A Chapbook is not meant even to attempt to be a definitive answer. Yet, the fourteen poem cycle, holding up a precise mirror to Posit, and the rest of the Posit Trilogy (2017), does try its hand at oracular somnambulism towards what this decade is supposed to represent, embody, and deify. Composed at Volo Coffehouse, which is strategically positioned on Main Street, Manayunk, Philadelphia, the poet channels thumbprints, palimpsests, and insignias, beamed in from outer space to set (hopefully, and God willing) a decade on some semblance of fire.
