From discursive essay-poems to tightly constructed lyrics, Ed Falco’s X in the Tickseed examines a world that reveals itself through its mysteries, reflecting upon the ephemeral nature of all things.

Trade Review
X in the Tickseed is a gorgeous, riveting meditation on memory, mortality, art-making, and the complications of living. Equal parts lyric, narrative, and philosophical, Ed Falco's poems remind us that the world is beautiful and terrible in equal measures." - Erika Meitner

"In its masterful control of language and form, its clarity and layered complexity, this book is itself a work of beauty, one that will last for a long while." - Eric Nelson

"Both smart and heartfelt, these poems are meant to be not nibbled but devoured, again and again." - David Kirby
