Summary:
"The poems in Mark Jarman's new collection, Zeno's Eternity, take their cue from Zeno's paradox, which says that since space is infinitely divisible, an arrow traveling toward a target will never reach its destination. Everything exists in a kind of suspension." -- From publisher's description.
