Volo

- As 2022 wore into 2023, people bothered to wonder: are the Twenties here yet? *Volo: A Chapbook* is not meant even to attempt to be a definitive answer. Yet, the fourteen poem cycle, holding up a precise mirror to *Posit*, and the rest of the *Posit Trilogy* (2017), does try its hand at oracular somnambulism towards what this decade is supposed to represent, embody, and deify. Composed at **Volo Coffehouse**, which is strategically positioned on Main Street, **Manayunk**, Philadelphia, the poet channels thumbprints, palimpsests, and insignias, beamed in from outer space to set (hopefully, and God willing) a decade on some semblance of fire.
