These are the places I've looked for you -- Strata of invincible bodies -- Study: of spaces and of filling them -- Apparition of devotional forms -- Hieroglypth 1 (Nights with Moons I've liked) -- The sharing of atoms is the nature of things -- Essay on time travel -- I've never seen an ugly bridge: a romance -- The agony of leaves -- Catalogue of 40 days -- Hieroglyph 2 (What happens next?) -- Recoomended reading -- Appendix: Useful exits (Mantinades).
"This bold hybrid of poetry, memoir, letter, essay and ekphrasis shows what alchemy can happen when pushing at the boundaries of what poetry is.

The grief of the title is the grief of memory, inevitability, and in particular the grief of, and for, a lost mother"--Back cover.
