unelevated

Most children have respiratory issues because the unelevated senzalas are filled with mold from Príncipe’s frequent rains.

Guzman is willing to accept extradition and plead guilty to charges in a U.S. court if he can negotiate an "unelevated" prison sentence in a medium-security prison, his lawyer told reporters last month.

Of course, this is true only of good art; the least trace of anything awkward or amateurish, and we remain in our unelevated state, our reality of blushing, stumbling, idiotic misunderstandings and blunders.

To borrow from Moore, the fiddle, in Ossip’s poems, is often what ushers in the beyond, lending a reassuring sense that a poem matters not just in light of its own achievement but in terms of its ability to accommodate a world that is often inelegant, unelevated, scratchy, or strange.

A resulting slight sense of awkwardness is what makes her art so persuasive: It indicates that the hand is there; the material is unelevated; the technology is organic.
