A poem that invokes expansive loneliness, where the poet's emotional response is to endure. A crushed line of astral forms and anatomy in perpetual remove; it is a poem that nurtures vulnerability: some soft-footed embryo sounds against language's viscera. Night \u0026amp; Ox possesses a feral minimalism for those too tired and too frantic with joy to cope with narrative.  'A fierce, ladderlike cri de c\/ur -- at times a cri de cur -- Night \u0026amp; Ox pulses with sawblade nocturnes that gnaw through the very rungs on which they're wrung. One part Jabberwocky-talkie, one part fatherhood ode, the poem seeks a threshold, where the \"mondayescent\" gives way to ardour, splendour, even love. Scott is a cosmoglot of the throat's ravine, and this is his manic, pandemonic article of faith.' -- Andrew Zawacki Praise for Blert: 'Scott takes us down to the basement of words, where sound and rhythm rule, and poets learn their craft.\nBlert is a strange and gorgeous work of linguistic materialism.' -- Dennis Lee","brand":"Coach House Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53985863270744,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781552453292_a6912db1-4dfc-423b-8373-22b3a79566b9.jpg?v=1765298724","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/night-ox","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
