Part prose poem, part lyric essay, "Bullet Points" considers an American courthouse shooting, its aftermath, and its echoes in law, history and capitalism. Drawing on acts of language and power, art and trauma, "Bullet Points" raises questions about the systems and structures that enable violence via a poetry brilliantly awake to the fact that: “Language is one way of doing business across time and into spaces. Image is another.”
