The book’s foreword and introduction frame the poems as a search for enduring wonder beneath advertising, commerce, housework, and simplified “facts.” Through formal techniques such as pantoum, sestina, rondeau, triolet, and villanelle, the collection re-enchants mundane life while reflecting on how written language preserves thoughts, emotions, and events across

collection,Chronicles in Passing,stitches the scientific,the imaginary,and themundane together into unique patterns,like the \"Homemade Quilts\"that one poem instructs us to make.Another piece titled \"There WereOnly\"ends with lines that could be a mission statement for the entireproject:  \nI lift myface to capture the rain of childhood and failing,remember the earth is covered mostly with water and weknow less about oceans than the moon.So many wonderslost in grade school.  \nFor these poems are trying to sieve everyday wondersfrom the detritus of advertising,commerce,housework(an entirepoem gives very practical rhyming instructions on how to hang upwashing!),and other bits of data that we adults arrogantly call \"facts\".  \nThe grown-up speaker of the opening poem,\"A MomentLike No Other,\"remembers when she believed—and when shestopped believing—the nun's grotesque warning that children whotalked in her class would fall through the floorboards to Hell.Onethrilling,impossible-seeming realm of \"fact\"gives way to another,the infinite cosmos revealed by the new saints of modern science一Giordano Bruno,Carl Sagan,Neil deGrasse Tyson.What is gained,and what is lost,by this paradigm shift?A writer living in the worldthat technology has wrought,Smallwood must mount her ownheretical resistance against the forces of disembodied data andlanguage-twisting advertising.  \nOne way she re-enchants the world is through poetic  \nformalism—dignifying topics like supermarket flyers,hospital meals,and tax preparation by describing them in the form of a pantoum,sestina,rondeau,or triolet.This method builds a bridge,howevertenuous and subjective,from banal modernity to a classical past  \nwhere(we nostalgically imagine)it wasn't so hard to find \"solidproof you're important and know what's real\"(\"Store Flyers\").As sheconcludes wistfully in \"Select Moments\":  \nSurely if I stood tall as possibleLong enough,tried hard enoughthere'd come hints,some pattern?  \n—Jendi Reiter,author of An Incomplete List of My Wishes:Stories(Sunshot Press,2018)and editor of WinningWriters.com  \n## Introduction\n\nChronicles in Passing is a collection of formal and free versepoems about the incredible,enduring power of the written wordto capture and preserve thoughts,emotions,and events.The wordchronicles,associated with being a factual written account of historyand record keeping,is used for contrast with classroom early readerwords like \"see Spot run,\"yet both reflect the times they were written.We remember encountering Beowulf,Canterbury Tales,and Hamlet—struggling to understand the strange words and culture and can butwonder what those following us will think about us.Chronicles arewritten by a select group(usually the winners),so caution is advised;individuals do not see things the same(remember the fable abouteach ofthe blind men describing an elephant)?And women wereleft out in the earliest days from the realm of scribes involved withkeeping track of commerce of the Sumerians around 3200 BC and arestill involved in catching up.  \nExamples of the formal poetry in the collection
