Craig Dworkin's Motes imitates a form created by Bob Grenier in A Day at the Beach (Roof) and Sentences. As Grenier says in the "Afterword:" "What’ s wrong with our Community of Poets, such that each next 'new one' has to be so studiously / stylistically ('New'), Idiosyncratic… ?" Dworkin helps reposition us on the planet near here and over there. The poems are minimal but fully reentrant, that is, reading them again and again does not feel like a repeat.
