Abstract
Ode to Lateral Thinking animates intuition through 47 poems of varying energies. In search of joys both domestic and wild, a reader navigates American psyches, sudden misgivings, intrusive thoughts and philosophical sediment. Perception reveals the interconnected sense of self: both reader and writer have an opportunity to communicate by feel.
