Poet Sherwin Bitsui is at the forefront of a new generation of Native writers who resist being identified solely by race. At the same time, he comes from a traditional indigenous family and Flood Song is filled with allusions to Dine (Navajo) myths, customs, and traditions. Highly imagistic and constantly in motion, his poems draw variously upon medicine song and contemporary language and poetics. "I map a shrinking map," he writes, and "bite my eyes shut between these songs." An astonishing, elemental volume. I retrace and trace over my fingerprints. Here: magma, there: shore, and on the peninsula of his finger pointing west-a bell rope woven from optic nervesis tethered to mustangs galloping from a nation lifting its first page through the man hole-burn marks in the saddle horn, static in the ear that cannot sever cries from wailing.
