Description: "During my travels to cemeteries since 2011, I have photographed almost seven thousand last names on headstones that are parts of speech. With these words I have created poems that investigate language, history, and some of life's events. Near this summer's end, I wrote my chronology of the outbreak of COVID19 from its arrival through the end of August 2020. The surnames Novel, Corona, Virus, Malady, Mask, Levels, Fiasco, Tweet, Layoff, Furlough, Science, Doom and Hope were all particularly evocative."--Statement from sleeve.
Notes: Two double sided 4 page accordions.  Color printed, enclosed in a sleeve.
