What is immediately striking about Farnoosh Fathi’s Granny Cloud is the electrifying syntax in poems like “Luxe Chariot w/ Bidet (Meals on Wheels)”:the quivering silicone balances of lyricism,transferred one word to the next, this weight agreed    upon the loverand the beloved both in me, agreeing for the world that   music is,that a child has punctuated my letter—that I bring the    harmed,deranged and foreign things close, and closer.
