In Nic Pizzolatto's True Detective Rust makes a comment to the effect that some linguists believe religion to be a language virus re-routing pathways through the brain, destroying critical thinking etc. Howe's poetry certainly re-routs the logic of language, opening words to previously unimagined syntactic structures. So disconcerting it's like looking into a new world with wonder every time I read her verse.
