Poetry. In Watchword, William Fuller plots the paths of consciousness with sensitivity and precision. Pivoting on what he has elsewhere called "transfer points almost too elusive to name, " his poems shift--sometimes mid-word--between languages of commerce, the natural sciences, and seventeenth-century Neoplatonism (among others). Such moments of exchange elicit both wonder and horror, what emerges is a marriage of heaven and hell.

These poems were written over a period of several years. They cover a range of topics from memories of segregation in Alabama, to high school loves, to the discovery of an exotic, albeit unsavory, world from Malaysia to the Philippines. Back in the U.S., the elation and heartbreak of love led to philosophical skepticism which he expressed in brutal sarcasm. Both the light and darkness of life can be found here.
