Thom Eichelberger-Young || THE LAST WORDS OF SERGEANT METAPHYSIC

(Panels 57 - 72)

ἅπανθʼ ὁ μακρὸς κἀναρίθμητος χρόνος φύει τʼ ἄδηλα καὶ φανέντα κρύπτεται·

— Ajax 646 - 47

Thom Eichelberger-Young is an artist, mental health caregiver, and publisher living in Buffalo, New York. Their works include the long poems BESPOKE (Saint Andrew’s University Press), ANTIKYTHERA (antiphony), and a forthcoming work of political aesthetic theory, OINTMENT WEATHER: INSURGENT POIETICS AMIDST DESPERATE TIMES (CLOAK.wtf). They operate Blue Bag Press. 

The Panels are an idiosyncratic formal project mapping heard language dictated to the poet who immerses themselves in the mesh of contemporary crises.
