Inhaltsangabe

In this debut by author stevie redwood, there is love-an abundance of love. And there is rage and dialectics and all we are capable of-all of it: the beauty and terror and generosity and dispossession and violence and collectivity and survival and deathmaking and interdependence and warfare-as beings living and dying on this earth in whatever place and time and context we're in, for however long we're here. It is a study and exploration of putative opposites that are actually deeply co-constitutive and in mutable laminate relationship with each other. Here, in redwood's hands, we see our capacity and attention and choices. Maybe too, there is hope that we might resist annihilation; we might wage life against capital.

D A N G E R O U S B O D I E S / A N G E R O D E S is an invitation into curiosity asking us to question who is us; who is we. Amid hope, this is also a provocation, or many provocations. Can we find and reach and move and be in conversation with / be moved by people who also aim to destroy the worlds that aim to destroy us? Do we know us?-meaning, loosely, maybe, people threatening to and threatened by and simultaneously necessary for and expendable to capital accumulation. These poems ask us to try to understand that these poems, though a work (of poetics), are not themselves "the work" that must be done. These poems remind us that while there is a place for poetry and art in the world-there is much it cannot do.
