Ending in Planes occupies itself with language and location. The poems ask the reader to receive the word without expectation, as playful utterance and sometimes allegory shaped at the horizons of the page. The collection performs hybridity as a collision between a rolling landscape of places--Seville, Boston, Pittsburgh, St. Martin--and a speaker who at times addresses the reader directly and "means for you to answer." As a whole, the book is a travelogue of conversations with self and other, of fragmented meditations on love and loss, and of disrupted narrative sequences which move us from the familiar to unversed terrain.
