Abstract

The Lift is an autobiographical, retrospective collection of poems inhabiting the margin between logic and magic. These poems seek to explore how children figure the chaos into which they are born, and track resonant points of disillusionment along the maturation process. Though fairly chronological, the trajectory of this bildungsroman complicates a completely linear passage of time, dwelling in moments of bewilderment, intrigue and loss. From it emerges a durational life narrative from an embodied perspective.
