About
The Central Station plays on the word “station” (class, status, destination, death, home-base) and the poems (all hundred-plus that have one-word titles) look at all these meanings in mostly Guyanese contexts from various perspectives. One which views the death of many generations of fishermen as missing links in the family-tree ends with “the lack fills a whole life with trying to fill.” Of the historical killings in “Lusignan,” the speaker is paralyzed by “horrors heavier than this poem can hold.”
