In a section called Over the Bright and Darkened Lands, canonical poems are torqued into new shapes. Except Thou Ravish Me, reimagines John Donnes famous Batter my heart, Three-persond God as told from the perspective of a victim of domestic violence. Like Pablo Neruda, Addonizio hears a swarm of objects that call without being answered: hospital crash carts, lawn gnomes, Evian bottles, wind-up Christmas crches, edible panties, cracked mirrors. Whether comic, elegiac, or ironic, the poems in <em>Mortal Trash</em> remind us of the beauty and absurdity of our time on earth.</p><p>From Scrapbook:</p><p>We believe in the one-ton rose<br />and the displaced toilet equally.
