He builds a distinctive world that often turns violent and lovelorn, his rendering clear-eyed and voiced like a blade -- and does so while displaying the expansive range of a skilled craftsman. Far more than a sequence of individual poems, \u003cem\u003eBlameforest\u003c\/em\u003e is a layered and nuanced work of innovative literature to be read in one sitting, and then over and over again. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-- Jacob M.
