In a darkly elegant collection of verse, Robert Moore examines his family, his future and cows. These poems border on noir, with the collection interspersing philosophy, sardonic wit and arresting imagery. From the "unlikely pair of cupcakes" that are his Mother's girlhood friends, to the philosophizing cows that end the book, this is a collection of unexpected turns, intricate verse and a strong, original voice.

Time, memory, love and death weave through this intricate and mesmerizing collection of poetry. In this book, Robert Moore has created a museum of stories, people and ideas - some real, some imagined - that captivate the reader. From Joan of Arc, to Rapunzel, to his Father, Moore draws ideas and images out of the darkness making them new and strange, and uses them to create a rich, shadowy tapestry of verse.
