listen-a poetic creature

All this happened,
more or less
Now, listen to me
- / - / - / - / - / -
I have, doubtless,
excited your curiosity
Shall I make my report?

listen-a poetic creature is a book-length cento that stretches the boundaries of speculative poetry. Griffin Rockwell asks the reader to see the alien(ated) "creature" in a new light, stitching language out of the words of science fiction's greats. At the heart of these lines, a being yearning for answers finds transformation and revelation.
