Metamorphic Door is a shapeshifting landscape. To read this collection is to tour the meat cave, the hadal zone, the summer air strung with mayflies. These are poems of noticing, full of insects, birds, and rocks; but also of viral videos, message-bearing geese, and the rat galactic. Supinka writes with a lantern curiosity, casting light everywhere her poetic gaze goes and these beams are further illuminated by illustrations which accompany the poems, as well as the combination of the two: poetry comics, which are featured throughout the book. Step through the eponymous door, roam its organic trappings, and feel your ecological and temporal attention transformed.
