In Dawn, Scott turns his powers of attention to the natural world, parsing what he sees in brief “blerts” of text separated by spaces. Hence:
“Pink-purple green-yellow red-purple inches of tan-yellow pink-purple, with ½ inch pinkish-purple, dark purple partially red-purple, a red-purple arm, dark-purple patchy-red pink-purple dark-purple red-purple red-dark purple inch.
What falls out when we shake a tree? Shake the tinticture of scent? Nostrils, amniotic sacs – what bursts?”
His are meditations on the materiality of the world, materialized as a map by Tinfish Press’s designer, Jeff Sanner. They may seem solitary, but engage with communities of family, philosophy and literature .
