Wild and original, spare but rich, the poems of Paul Fauteux’s EPOCH grant access to an imagination unbeknownst before. On the one hand, accounting for the domestic life, these poems keep on opening.  You’ll want to move through them again and again.

    from Epoch:

    Thirty

    You know,
    the bubbling up sensation—
    being thirty and holding
    a washcloth—

    remembering that as a child,
    the cloth must have been super-
    cloth: a sub-maranian
    towel with super

    duck-like properties,
    but you are in a body now
    like a consignment dresser—
    re-tightening drawer knobs

    and wondering whether
    to re-finish or paint over.
    You’ll pry the lid
    off an old paint can,

    and find, inside,
    an apricot.

    -originally published in After the Pause
