All this happened,

more or less

Now, listen to me

- / - / - / - / - / -

I have, doubtless,

excited your curiosity

Shall I make my report?

listen-a poetic creature is a book-length cento that stretches the boundaries of speculative poetry. Griffin Rockwell asks the reader to see the alien(ated) "creature" in a new light, stitching language out of the words of science fiction's greats. At the heart of these lines, a being yearning for answers finds transformation and revelation.

Griffin Rockwell is a queer poet who can frequently be found writing about gender, science, space, and unusual connections. Xe is the author of the Elgin Award-nominated chapbooks body in motion (perhappened press) and Lexicon of Future Selves (VA Press), as well as two microchapbooks; their work has appeared in AGNI, Cotton Xenomorph, Whale Road Review, Palette Poetry, and elsewhere.
