One poem steps down the page like a Slinky; another poem responds to makeup homework completed in the summer of a childhood accident; other poems punctuate the collection with dark meditations on dissociation, discipline, defiance, and destiny; and the near-title poem, Register of Eliminated Villages, suggests illuminated texts, one a Quran in which the speakers name might be found, and the other a register of 397 villages destroyed in northern Iraq.
