by Cham Zhi Yi (Author)

'blur by the' collects fractures that make not quite a whole. It is a giving of permission to the self, to exist as messily as ( i s ). These poems are a record of navigation through longing and dis [ place ] ment of the body and of place, a shattering of expectation(s) of the self and of family, often through dreams, food and eroticism. This is an attempt at freedom. 'blur by the' is a yearning for freedom from grief, memory, and-ultimately-from definition. The form through which the poems take in 'blur by the' is dancing-in-your-bedroom free, un-velcro-ed false bravado free. The poems eat a lot and hope to feed you too.
