The genius in Kreitler’s verse is his ability to capture the mournful yet questing interiority of his speakers as they grapple with the big subjects of survival, existential meaning, and wakefulness in an age of things.

Take the line of the road.
Take the spray paint marking
the plots of homes unbuilt.
Here where birds nest at the dry bottom of the swimming pool.
Take the water left over.
Leave before asking of it to remain.
The film of papery snow.
The plane of sight stretches west
and the West ends.
The love of the sun-blank afterward
is the love of it ending.
