Overview
Inman's poetry uses an anti-representational system of language. Mark Wallace, in an online article for Fascicle, noted in Inman's work the tendency for patterns to " move across poems." Wallace found " brief images, oddly juxtaposed and undermining each other; phrases and sentences torn up by improperly placed periods; slash marks, jump cuts, stray bits of words; moments thick with meanings that never quite complete themselves; social ironies, a sly and biting humor.... It's the movement that matters, the swoops, twists, barriers, jolts."
