Hail: Poems
Matthew Rotando’s second book of poems, Hail, hounds out the sources of attraction and attention by walking through early spring streams and abandoned cities. The poems here are goofy with precision and sad with joy. They tell how badly words want to be more than ghosts.

There are stories here too: small, translucent creatures that have just emerged from sleep. In wonder, they stumble on their newfound wings before careening into storms.
