Abstract

The Future Ira Sadoff (bio) In a flash I cross the centuries.On my moonwalk no distress stirs the airless air. No gadgetsplease: I’m thinking. A thing is inarguably a thing: it floatsbefore my attention span common as a passing car,the person in it gone now but surfacing in a sweater,a letter, in a nightmare that still sings to me. Herethere’s no atmosphere, no suggestion of lacknor excess. No sun shining, no light promising,nothing to look forward to. When you’re gone you’re gone. [End Page 190] Ira Sadoff Ira Sadoff’s last full-length collection was True Faith (boa Editions). He has poems coming out in the New Yorker and American Poetry Review.
