Poetry. "Tim Earley's crazed, ceremonial ceramic concoction--EPIGRAMS BOTH LUDIC AND REGICIDAL--got me thinking on Keats's illustrious and illustrated urn, all glazed with double-dipping truth and beauty and whatnot. But the Jeroboamian vessel here is awash in a goddam gouache of red-figured language and is smashed to smithereens by the most loquacious of syntactical sledgehammers, a perfected ball-peening into these totemic, shamanistic, sublime and subliminal shards. These proems--let's call them contemporary divining ostracons--banish us to the sensuous land of necessary nonsense, strangers in the land of nod where we nod yes and yes to these epic epigrams, and yes, to these moving moments, generated by this earnest earner, Tim, right on time."--Michael Martone
