They look out on a world disappearing, filled with the surreality of a city where a cardboard box containing a human heart awaits discovery (\"Nocturnal Cartography\") to a country where gasping birds cough up coins in a now-drained lake (\"The Loons\"). While current life is keenly observed, the poems turn to what lies ahead, investigating the narratives that are yet to take place, where simple earnest gestures linger (\"An Offering Is Infinite\") and \"the ghosts of the future\" turn to the comfort of a resetting solar system (\"Oh Amnesia\"). Standing in the space between worlds, the poems take a hard-earned stock of where we are but make a toast as we step forward on uncertain and unseen ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRobert Krut\u003c\/b\u003e is also the author of \u003ci\u003eWatch Me Trick Ghosts\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e The Now Dark Sun, Setting Us All on Fire\u003c\/i\u003e (which received the Codhill Poetry Award); \u003ci\u003eThis Is the Ocean\u003c\/i\u003e;\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eand The Spider Sermons.
