Everything in these poems sweats-the sunflower working hard for its first pair of leaves, the sister feeding her twin like a father, the men and women working in a community ravaged by the opioid crisis. With tender restraint, Ray's poems question...

Description
From the entangled cosmos to our present quickening calamity, the central concern of Diminuendo is the making and unmaking of the world. We live in uncertainty, "between earth and sky ever-/ cycling despair and hope." Despite-or because of-this foreboding, Moore seeks to view the natural world in and of itself, beyond its relationship to humans. This work conceives a realm in which distinctions between animate and inanimate diminish and the boundary...
