Eric Pankey
Incidental Objects on a Minor Planet
A note from a flute of elder wood
A fabricated diary
The water a boat displaces
The future as a place of exile
The photograph as a caesura between before and after
The grid and its austere function
The m that distinguishes a comma from a coma
Alluvial marshlands
To borrow your enemy’s arrows
The object rehabilitated through reuse
A dark chamber fitted with a lens
An exemplar liberated from rebirth
The murmur of ink drying
Eric Pankey is the author of many books, most recently Augury (Milkweed Editions 2017).
