You’re Going to Miss Me When You’re Bored by Justin Marks
You’re Going to Miss Me When You’re Bored, by Justin Marks, graduate, the MFA in Creative Writing at The New School.
Barrelhouse Books, 2014.
“The poems in You’ Going To Miss Me When You’re Bored integrate the sublime and the mundane, the destined and the happenstance, the dire meaningfulness of the moment and the absurd lack of consequence in the infinity. In some, the trivial becomes transcendent and in others, the transcendent turns out to be a mirage. Justin Marks treats both moments with equity, qualifying epiphanies and salvaging disappointments.”
