As physicist David Bohm said, \"Individuality is only possible if it unfolds from wholeness,\" and this strange and singular poetry collection carries with it the weight of conspiracies, alternative history, and the occult-and all the freshness and boldness that comes from shredding, desecrating, and reassembling these theories into new narratives. \u003ci\u003eThe Vanguards of Holography\u003c\/i\u003e is a microcosm and macrocosm, all the weirdness and wonder that can happen when a laser light is split in two. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePoetry as messages from another world, an urgent cascade of keys and codes; this is a poet I will follow into any dark without fear of losing our way.
