A poem about how escapism sucks. A poem about dental damnation. Rose Lemberg’s elegiac “maze poem” can be read in many ways. A poem about unusually dire circumstances. This poem deals with forms in space. After a world tour of genre fiction publications, this pantheon of foreboding juggernauts returns to Labyrinth Inhabitant. A young woman seeks to discover whether there is such a thing as a world outside of her native land of Somnambulis. Based on the knowledge and experience that I bring to this poem as a reader, I would answer, “probably yes.” The author of more than 500 poems and stories channels Rabelais in this imaginative visit to a grim ribcage colony. The Rhysling Award-winning poet contributes a sonnet that poses the question: Where does the Minotaur get his drawings mounted? |
