Based on a set of seven poems created as a group by Boston imagist poet Amy Lowell, and they effectively convey the grim sense of unease felt in a time of war or strife. While they never depict the mundane details of war in a visual manner, they capture the types of fragmented images, bizarre thoughts, and deep anxieties experienced in our worst dreams during such times. Duration: 19:00
