[ Ariadne / Dark Dark Shine ]
These poems are, as the starting poem says, "a lost/found/&-repeat narration. The arcing-thread—a-whip/lifeline/way/the-magical-gift-given/odd-bit—discovered in an old sewing basket . . . A puzzle sometimes—/which simple thing reveals a boon.” The question posed, 'labyrinth or circle'?
"I hope the poems in this book have their own impressionistic narrative. If there is meaning to be had in the whole, I would say it could be found in the space between the poems, in the way they adhere to one another or not—the throughline."

for Lack of Diamond Years
For Lack of Diamond Years is an idiosyncratic collection of short poems—most under 20 lines—where questions lead the way. At its heart, this book of poems is a quixotic narration between realms of being—from the quotidian into the sometimes numinous, sometimes murky realm of the unknown/unknown, and on into a kind of revamped transcendental. There is a thread of praise that runs throughout—an embrace of the joys and sorrows of thinking and feeling, of love and loss.
