Poetry. SCORNED BEAUTY COMES UP FROM BEHIND: PREVERBS is one of seven "preverb complexes" comprising the unpublished book Exchanging Intentions, itself one of seven books of preverbs, of which the first to be published was Verbal Paradise (Zasterle: 2011).

Such an open intentional act of language invites configurative reading as a singular event of variable meaning. An instance of axial poetics, it puts language on its own stepped-up recognizance. Robert Kelly writes, "SCORNED BEAUTY is the most gripping series of poems I've read in a long time. Wise, funny, humble, arrogant, lovesick, swooning into uncountable clarities. It seems the full maturation of work, of presence."
