Description:
<p><strong>What is breath for? What is archive? Why write a poem, instead of... something else?</strong></p>
<p><em>Theophylline</em> is a work of poetry motivated by asthma, seeking poetry’s futurity in a queer and female heritage. Moure crosses a border to engage the poetry of three American modernists—Muriel Rukeyser, Elizabeth Bishop, and Angelina Weld Grimké—as a translator might enter work to translate it. But what if that work is already in English?</p>
<p ><em>I looked for women who had made and were formed by<br>
migrations, and who were in some way marked ‘qustionably’<br>
by the socius, and I examined what I could of the forms and <br>
shapes of their migrations—</em></p>
