The Middle is beautiful and powerful?Angela Hume's line breaks are beautiful and powerful?her pages are beautiful and powerful?and all that grace animates calm outrage, ghostlier awareness (?private like a thought / for a wrist, of a thigh?), keener sounds (?try looking away try looking away try looking away try looking away try looking away try?)?keener ethics, too (first / demarcate // an aesthetics of / / injury?)?the body is ghost?polis is eyes but police is eyes too?and polis is police (?state of pacifi / cation state of // damage state of / destroy-all-ex // cess body state of little / to no // speech / ill / state // police / state?)?we have to have political poetry?we can't be human otherwise?and what holds here is a new Objectivism?a clarity made actual in a construct of words (?(inhabit that / incision // in such a way that can't be used?)?this clarity holds against and in the violence that surrounds us (Benjamin: ?something rotten in law is revealed?)?Angela Hume is a necessary poet.
