Lisa Fishman’s sixth book of poetry is centered on bodies and where they are in relation to each other—whether a body is of plant; of person; or of words, and whether a body is personal or civic; singular or collective; alive or dead. The contradictions of lyric unfold, in this most unconventional elegy, by means of perception so steady it can change. 24 Pages and other poems extends backward and forward, with the presence of many, such as John Clare and Friederike Mayröcker, helping along the way.
As if a corridor
could open or the EAR's two missing
letters — h e a r t — e a r t h — wherever
an animal pops out of the water such as a hooded merganser
appeared to do a somersault diving under, not like a mallard more like a child
or a ball — it didn't come up
until it did
