Abstract
The search for knowledge across languages and languages beyond knowledge leads to questions of completeness, control, and understanding. One of these poems was written in response to an omnipoetics class, where the problems and promise of anthologizing across time, languages, and cultures took center stage. Another poem came from the experience of co-teaching a translation group. The third was born from a paired writing relationship; poetic language for communication is always a leap of trust. Together, these poems reflect the lived experiences of the author; a multilingual poet who studies multilingual poets.
