My Fingernails Are Fresnel Lenses is a single poem in a twenty-page chapbook, handset and letterpress printed in 10pt Bembo on Mohawk Via stock in an edition of 300. Measures 4″ x 4″. The work was originally published by Sunnyoutside Press in 2008. It explores the relationship between science, memory, and light, attempting to tease out an elegantly simple analogy that at first sounds romantic and preposterous, but eventually proves to be absolute physical fact.
