The poems in this book are structural, often geometrical, in form. They derive from a place where poetry, visual art, and humor blend together. One type places phrases in a lattice-like matrix, exploring the relationship of any word to all other words in the poem. An example of this is Double Cross Fire, where secondary, even tertiary, levels of infrastructure emerge. In another type, a word or phrase is placed in a geometric continuum to reveal relationships within constituent parts of words or to demonstrate the overall texture of the poem. There are concrete poems where words or phrases are arranged to form the object that they represent. An example of this is the calligram, Martian Love Profile, where the key word becomes the facial features of the alien profile.
