In this, his sixth pamphlet, Jay explores real and imaginary, private and public, past, present and future moments. After writing about: the synchronicity of two Caravaggio paintings and the TV news, a personal sanguine moment, an incident from Jamaica Inn, conversations with an artist and a Bo tree, the poet concludes with what will persist, and thoughts about last things. It has been said that: "Jay's language is daring, not to attract attention to its own cleverness, but to draw us uncomplainingly into the vivid experience the poem wants to share."
