False Weight is a poetic spot check on the measure of significance-what we affect in the giving of it, how we react when it's forced upon us, and the way we often exaggerate or diminish it for the sake of narrative.

Elliott is an experiment in biographical verse. It does not lead you through the tunnel of the character's experience with a bright light and comforting narrative, but asks you to follow by the feel of walls in the dark and the recognition of something familiar just a few steps ahead. What could be called an essay on male identity in the modern age is communicated here with the same tension that underlies its thesis.
