Nicole Rain Sellers Reviews Ashley Haywood and Brett Cross

Clustering is a technique for mind-mapping the parts of any whole. Organisms cluster into ecologies, people cluster into communities, and poems cluster into collections. In Polyp and Islands, clusters of cells, beings, and places form and dissolve. Both books explore the flux between separateness and wholeness in nature, each word and line branching into vaster topographies. The poems arrange in organic patterns, then undermine their own classification by splitting, mixing, and rejoining themselves in new arrangements.
