Poetry by Nathaniel G. Moore
Pastels are Pretty Much the Polar Opposite of Chalk
Pastels are Pretty Much the Polar Opposite of Chalk
Pastels Are Pretty Much The Polar Opposite of Chalk is about the syntax of distinction, unlikely comparison, and the colorful drama that comes with choosing between actions, people, and things. Scenarios of rupture are set in shopping lines, bedrooms, tawdry boardwalks, train stations, and hospitals, as tinsel rains down slowly in the background. Nathaniel G. Moore’s poetry bears witness to staged altercations between previously unimagined oppositions, and asks the strangest questions: Do I like pretzels? What kind of pretzels do I prefer? How do I feel? Would I rather watch a car chase or be in one? What is Golden Flint? Do they sell that at the grocery store? Have I told you the story of when I fell in love with you? Like a sensitive psycho surrealist, Moore provides answers to all the questions in his wonderfully wrought and affecting poetic riddles.
