Firewheel is the name of my upcoming book.
As a special treat, here's a poem
from it, written especially for After
Y2K.
one second on the clock
we're racing toward a precipice
one leap! and we're suspended
for one brief moment in time
one ever-more precise measurement
one infinity of quanta between tick and tock
one could devote oneself to minutiae
but at some point it all clicks over
one star in the sky
one night with cold ears and noses outside
if this is the end if time, and angels come reaping
i've never wasted a moment spent with you
