the lyrica poems

by Michael Hannon

Two words make the prosodic "line," three lines make a "lyrica," linked lyrica make a serial poem. More koan than haiku, THE LYRICA POEMS work that thin vein where words are mistaken for things. Hannon's poems are insects gathered at the crack of sap, blood, a trail of crumbs. They dissolve a thing, carry it off.

the lyrica poems are insects gathered at a crack of sap, blood, trail of crumbs. They dissolve a thing, carry it off. Hannon has caught them in the act.
