In My Breath Floats Away from Me, Eric Lochridge takes an enigmatic approach to the workings of the world, keeping a circumspect distance in poems that gravitate toward the personal. The resulting tension reverberates with insights that challenge the unresponsive systems and institutions that hold us down. Whether side-eyeing religion, career, or reckless destruction of the environment, Lochridge shows sharp comedic chops that accentuate a wacky, earnest spirit. His portrayals of fathers, husbands, and workers revel in a deadpan absurdism that commingles the real and the surreal. Throughout, the poems remain vigilant, poised to discern when to accept, when to surrender, and when to fight in a falling, failing world.
