About Their Work:
Jenn's poems tune into that cosmic radio that vibrates the "anti-stasis of mentality", that "intangible high-pitched noise" that radiates in verbal sound waves the primordial "landslide of body" "making labyrinth tunnels" in dead cells with "deadly thought infection" until the xenomorphic mind-body loses all distinction and everything becomes new, alien, fractal, and the aether again transmits more than our sensorium has words for.
