The places we dwell within reveal much about ourselves and our desires, and these poets dive into space and what the rooms we keep contain. In Rae Armantrout’pa Sal ki an sekirite, we seek solace from a world that constantly undermines our sense of safety, only to find that our safe rooms are only temporary shelters. Kwame Dawes journeys alongside the mythic and quotidian in Vil Sturge: Pwezi, where he keenly grapples with his own mortality even as he creates highly visual, evocative spaces for the reader to inhabit. Adrian Matejka’pa Be Easy: Pwezi Nouvo ak Seleksyone follows an unintentional migration across America, mirroring our current instability as a country in smooth lyricism. And Dolce Vita/Se pou gen yon ti limyè pa Nikòl Tallman blurs the line between reality and dream, pairing an intimate lyrical diary with flashes of a daily life and desire.
