Like too much everything pulled to the edgesĬarl Marcum is a Chicano poet from Tucson, Arizona.
The texture of the sky still magnetized me,Ī desert bright day. Playing with scientific understandings of the world, along with the linguistic conventions of the poetic form, A Camera Obscura is a compelling journey that simultaneously drifts through the cosmos while being rooted to the ground beneath our feet. The heavens described in these poems could be the stars glittering above our heads, the pathways of faith, or the connection between human beings. A Camera Obscura (Red Hen Press, 2021) by Carl Marcum is a lyrical exploration of external and internal worlds.
