Can you accomplish whatever you set your mind to? What if you set your mind to being someone else, detached from your Southern Gothic roots, huddled on the western edge of the continent with your wife and kids? This is the spirit of Eject City, Jason Morphew's second full-length collection of poems. It's a memoir in verse. It's the fear that the darkness of your family tree might also shade your soul. A cult-favorite singer-songwriter, Morphew's thirteen full-length indie rock albums haunt these poems. College Music Journal once said that Morphew has the soul - and the lyrics - of poet. Now he has the poems, too, which never completely abandon the cadence of popular song. Eject City will appeal to fans of the fiction of George Saunders, the films of Ari Aster, and the poetry of Ada Limón. The Washington Post says Morphew's perspective is always surprising. Come, get surprised!
