Pushing against the boundaries of what poetry might be, Alison Glenny’s The Farewell Tourist is haunting, many-layered and slightly surreal. In The Magnetic Process sequence a man and a woman inhabit a polar world, adrift in zones of divergence, where dreams are filled with snow, icebergs, and sinking ships. Their scientific instruments and observations measure a fragmented and uncertain space where conventional perspectives are violated. In a series of histories – of the Atmosphere, of the Honeymoon – footnotes reference vanished texts. By turns mysterious, ominous and evocative, they represent connections to an obscured narrative of disintegration and icy melancholy.

Great Value heat gear material with high neck collar and loose fitting
Color: Black, Size: X-Large
My husband has been looking for mock neck shirts that are comparable to UA heat gear material but that are short sleeve and fit loose to wear under his work uniform. These seemed to have been a good soft quality option and the price is is great.

I bought the black T-shirt about a month ago and really liked the quality the fabric is soft, the fit is great, and it holds up well after washing. So I decided to get the same one in dark blue.Very satisfied with the purchase

Fit me even better than I was hoping.
Size: XX-Large, Color: Beau Blue
I was all but convinced upon receipt I would be sending these back but they fit beautifully. The trick is understanding what the directions are trying to tell you. I’m 6’4 with a 40 inch waist on traditional jeans (regular fit). I selected 2XL because my feeling was I would want and need a waist line that would fit me but not constrict me. Admittedly my regular fits were getting close to not fitting as good anymore so I felt 2XL would give me that “extra” my regular fits were no longer affording me. Comfortable at the waist(not too tight) and they fit me nicely all over. Perfect length. Colors look great too. The pictures shown are accurate. I’ll be ordering more. Give these a try! Definitely worth the money.

amazing pair of jeans!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dirty Blue
im 6'2, 280 currently , bought a 38/32 pair of, these jeans and will instantly look forward to buying more, just for comparison , the same day i got these i tried on a pair of levis i had just bought as well, the Levi jeans i got were also 38/32, and they were the 501's which are stretchy, but maaaan, let me tell you, the difference between those and these are night and day, these feel like i can run a mile in them and do whatever activities i choose to, its stretchy in all the right places, the crotch area isnt tight at all, these are incredibly breathable and in comparison to the levi's price , these are cheaper by $15 and they weren't even on sale, unlike the levis which were on sale by 15% and STILL costed $50. Will buy more ASAP. 10/10

stretch jeans
Size: Large, Color: Dirty Blue
These jeans because they are very comfortable. They stretch just the right amount without binding. I am female but wear men's jeans. These jeans ride lower so sometimes slide down. I ended up solving that issue by ordering a second pair in a smaller size. Worked perfectly. They stretch so no problem there, and now they stay up!
