With oracular grace and whimsy, these poems innovate the public and private axes of gay love in a tumescent future. We meet Connor, a native Nebraskan and fledgling grant writer, and Seal, a financial analyst from Kingston, Jamaica, as they flummox the space between desire and demise, \"the sun again a big orange pill \/ stuck in the blue throat of the sky.\" \u003cem\u003eConnor \u0026amp; Seal \u003c\/em\u003eserves as almanac to a time not far off, of techno-queer bots, state-sponsored violence, and individual resistance.
