Slumberland

By Sanjeev Sethi

Collectanea of ache beetles over sleep.

Interludes weigh on sense and spirit by

bringing to light alethic notions that are

often neglected. Pitchpersons of probity

own channels that trot out truth. Some

peck at their plates, scrunch and swallow

bones, others unfold orts and oddments.

Both are heritors of heartbreak.
