The Sealey Challenge: Day 11! Sight Lines by Arthur Sze

Sight Lines is masterful. I know this intuitively even if I am not grounded and do not know where the narrator is or even who the narrator is. The language and craft are wonderful. There are many sequences. I love the sound! I always feel like I am halfway with Sze. Not that I cannot catch up or that I am not intelligent enough--not that I lack--but there is something significant culturally, historically, a something-ly that I am not a part of to fully comprehend the plot and story behind each poem. I lack context. I find that the fault of Sze though.


The art in each line is apparent. This I know. I focus on lines as I read, not the full poem.
