Green Burial

By Derek Graf

Winner of the Elixir Press 2021 Antivenom Poetry Award

Lush and frantic, GREEN BURIAL submerges us in a dazzling, apocalyptic pastoral. Here we find a brother's funeral and a lover's last drink on the way to rehab as we travel a dreamscape of birds, trash, downontheirluck towns, motels and oil derricks. 'A body falls/ through the galaxies/ inside an opal, ' the poet writes. And so, we do. In Graf's hands the end of the world is both grief-stricken and saturated with an exhilarating, hallucinatory zeal.--Kirun Kapur, 2021 Antivenom Poetry Award Judge
