In Like Bismuth When I Enter, Carlos Lara engages in the purely creative aspect of language—its synthesis of dream and waking world. In these vibrant, hallucinatory poems, inspired by the element bismuth and its iridescent, surrealist structure, Lara attempts to produce a collective surge of new imagery, new mind states, and structural undoings. Like Bismuth When I Enter captures that moment when the universe strikes one with the unmistakable reminder of mystery via the quotidian and the elemental.
Carlos Lara is the author of The Green Record and co-author of The Audiographic As Data. The poem “God Wave” was published as a chapbook in 2018. Other poems and translations have appeared in Lana Turner, Seedings, Vestiges, Aurochs, Flag + Void, Gulf Coast, Omniverse, and elsewhere. He abides in Los Angeles.
