Lastovica describes the collection as such: ​ ‘Inventory Clerk’ is a nod to a former part of my career outside of art; it’s also a fitting reference to the process of sorting through 15+ years of sporadically written and poorly organized poetry. It’s also a bit of misdirection. It’s a catalog of things going on behind the veil, thoughts & ideas firing off in fragments, captured, pondered, and shelved; waiting to be recounted and maybe lost, then found again. It’s for creatives living below the radar, practicing their art in secret, quietly doing the work they need to do – for reasons they don’t understand - outside of anyone’s notice. The meanings & message within are open-ended and as deep as one is willing to peer. The chapbook is split into two parts. The first part is composed of 10 cut-up poems, ranging from 2006 to the present, drawn from such varied sources as Federico Garcia Lorca and the 1999 Spring/Summer edition of Orange Willow Review. The second part is comprised of 10 original works by Lastovica. ​
