The poem, which begins after she discovers the existence of an appropriated, politically walled-off potter's field\/prison, proposes that others are not figurative or metaphorical, but are literal, material--that alterity can be both a limit and radiance. Praise for Stacy Szymaszek: \"Each poem is what I am looking for: a resonance with a particular location, an intelligence unafraid of its humanity, a sort of desperate adequacy with the people or objects that Szymaszek encounters.\"--Etel Adnan\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSTACY SZYMASZEK is the author of Emptied of All Ships, Hyperglossia, and several chapbooks.
