Read the entire book. First, read "Fugitivity, Sequestration, and Escape: Tactics in the Real of Language, a Conversation with Alan Peleaz Lopez" on pages 112-116 of the PDF. This will help orient you to the experimental poetry collection. There is a lot going on in the book, so feel free to jump around as you read and focus in on the poems/visual art that most catch your attention, though do look closely at the ones where they write on official documents and at the visual poetry.
