Singing in the O of Not | ||||||
Kill me, skin whispers / to arctic bone, / I'm finished / with this disguise...
So begins the poem Blue Ampersand in Djelloul Marbrook's tenth collection of poems, Singing in the O of Not, songs of algebraic obliteration in which our identities dissolve in the grandeur of a cosmic whole. Algebra, al jabara, means the joining in Arabic, and here the singer sings himself into divine invisibility. |
