In this first collection of poetry, Matthew Vicar lights a fire in the poetic prairie, illuminating a backwards, upside-down, bizarro world where everything new is old, and everything old is new. These poems are together a singular torch casting shadows, at once both a celebration and renunciation of a frightening freedom whose flickering in the vast night is recognized but rarely understood. They are a collective and cohesive hymn, liturgical, predictive of consequence, simultaneously sacred and profane. Within this book, prelude and revelatory inauguration, Matthew Vicar dares the inevitable revolt. He casts down the gauntlet and challenges all comers, all the while placing himself at the forefront and center of the conflagration.
