Evelyn Reilly’ s most recent book of poetry,  Apocaplyso,  continues the dystopic re-working of poetry about the biosphere that she began in  Styrofoam  (Roof Books, 2009). Reilly’ s new work eschews form for contour, syntax for taxonomy, and content for thematics. A lot of writers essay new nature poetry. Reilly changes the nature of poetry by reflecting structures of the environment in her poetic performance.  Apocalypso  ends poetry as we know it with a bang.
