Description

GREEN OF ALL HEADSWinner of the 2026 PEN Voelcker Award for Poetry Longlisted for the 2026 Griffin Poetry Prize Written over the span of a decade, GREEN OF ALL HEADS is a work of formal range and emotional urgency. In the coinciding wakes of tragic loss and new motherhood, Aracelis Girmay examines the entangled temporalities of an aging parent and newly born children. This vital work grapples with what it means to attend to life in the context of corporate industries

sometimes ribald

and serves as a cypher through which to understand preceding passages

and that most intimate

and the grind that is the American Dream

depending on the mouth that holds it

Concepts of love are turned over and over in these poems: romantic love

things are baby

colonialism

and his newest collection

Gregory Pardlo

which wrestle with betrayal and forced obedience
