"Before our present circumstance was looming gabor g gyukics... detoxification of the body maintains a lingual balance remaining primed and capable, within our partial seasons as it continues to script his recognition of our "ennui" seemingly akin to the Georgics yet within our warped existential conundrum.--Will Alexander, poet, novelist, essayist, playwright, and visual artist, author of Refractive Africa; finalist for the 2022 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry and winner of the California Book Award in Poetry 2022. "gyukics spins and unspins words. These poems are full of play and humor anchored by just enough ache and ring.
