Poetry. In SATELLITE STRAINS, Blitz puts the idea of "strain" and its multiple applications at the center of an elaborate constellation of "turned"--and finely tuned phrases. "You said it/quickly and in a strict sense I heard/something else," he writes. This "strict sense" keeps picking up different strains in words, fragments of meaning enmeshed in a crosshatched pattern of precision and distortion: "even the quality of the sadness is a matter/of taste/or the matter, when you ask/what is."Michael Blitz is the author of 'Satellite Strains', published 2002 under ISBN 9781880516317 and ISBN 1880516314.
