Inhaltsangabe
This collection holds a mirror to the self and in its reflection we find the elegiac and the ecological, as in &;how much of enjoying a place / is destroying it?&;; the worlds both domestic and natural, as in &;when the redbird strikes the window, it is me / who takes blame&;; a daughter shattered, but not without humor&;&;I can feel it coming on, my season of lavish suffering, the why me why me why me why me / that leaves me snowblind in the asking&;&;and, certainly, not without tenderness. Shaped by both concision and unfolding sequences, The Last Unkillable Thing is a journey across landscapes of mourning.

From “Subnivean (or Holding Back the Year)”
I’d be lost
without my own bright footpath: tilled snow:
cloud cover: moonglow refracted: the shotgun crack
of a bough unburdened.
Could I walk off the hours
I’ve spent ashamed, attempting a life
that would make the dead proud?
What would it look like,
how much would it weigh?
