Abstract

Ineffable Catalogue is a collection of poems concerned with the limits of language. The medicalization and industrialization of natural parts of life cycles serves as a central theme. Simple language and images ranging from the strong to the surreal are employed. The poems are primarily free verse, but are carefully ordered through the use and breaking of rhythm. There is also a thread of the biblical, linking contemporary plagues with the Pentateuch.
