The Mayfly Codex unfolds with such a deftly woven oscillation between high and low (though which is which in the 'frothy brew?'): mechanical and organic, bawdy and reverential, declarative and interrogative. Underground optical cables communicate among stanzas and sections via extended metaphor (from the glass-eye gaze to the glistening glaze, from mechanical rats to the mysterious, and no doubt delicious, blue eggs), while we are looking away, up, and out for the mayfly soaring over variously pointed and sharp things. Like a supersaturated, supernatural fluid, Vincenz' language, as always, is astonishing. -Raymond Barfield Author InformationMarc Vincenz is a poet, fiction writer, translator, editor, musician and artist.
