Michael Cross : Haecceities

In Haecceities, Michael Cross has made an interim language, his invention a relation between the words—as if this unknown relation or 'noumenon' is 'a hide enthinned' of futuristic Elizabethan single words each at once tactile, optical, aural simultaneously traces and events of reinterpreted future-present spurred in 'the many hundred wing-lit hives'

— Leslie Scalapino.

Michael Cross’s critically acclaimed debut, In Felt Treeling: A Libretto, was published by Chax Press in 2008. Haecceities is his second collection of poetry. He is the editor of  The George Oppen Memorial Lectures at San Francisco State University (forthcoming). Cross lives in Oakland.
