From “Blueprint for the Dance” - “Twin strands/ melt on every turn/around each other/tango precisely/each choreographed step/a history of / trial and error”

From an interview with the author: I - How did you get to write Phyrrs, Hierwals and Bouldergeists? Z - Well one day I was rummaging around looking for an old pair of running shoes and there they were. I - The poems? Z - No the Bouldergeists. They were inside the running shoes. I - Seriously now, these poems are so quirky and queer, yet somehow so original and insightful. Where do you get your inspiration? Z -Well, my grandfather would have called it perquincity. I - I see. was you grandfather also a poet? Z - No he was a Hierwal.
