Faceless Names resounds from the ancient mesas of New Mexico, the Sangre de Cristo mysteries, the archetypical Demeter and Persephone, at last singing their own voices, sculpted, carved out of language. “Word you’re an entity of/hands & clay,” Anna Elena Eyre chants to the loving and the gone, in the poetic diptychs “Letters to Williams and Kora,” (in Hell) and the variable couplets of “Letters to Evelyn,” reaching back to Rhea, the earth grandmother. All sound is grounded in the body, assembling a fruitful language punctuated by space, halting hastening exhilarating—a new, native mythology.
