“A Korean War Hero leans ominously out a hotel window. The poet’s father slices a pool cue in the sanctuary of a pool hall. Memory does not console, but rather haunts and unsettles in its enigmatic fragments. It also exists in Butts’ poems as a flashlight, training a narrow beam on a singularly drawn moment with the possibility that it will illuminate, or even explain, the onrush of the present.”
