Lesson From Lingering Houses: Speculative poetry of the last undocumented weather

Speculative poetry seen at first in places like Poet Lore , The Alaska Quarterly Review , The Iowa Review and others. Poems dealing with the evidence of the surreal in life, depicting characters both ennobled and debased by the physics surrounding them. A man holds the last dinosaur in his basement. Armageddon as conducted from the roof of a farm house. Preparing to defend the house from Santa Claus. A woman who appeases dragons. The parking lot attendant at a time portal. The sole elevator in a building opening on a fantastical landscape.
