Synopsis
Like its predecessor, Stage by Stage, this is a volume of poetry. It does not have a solitary theme, but interlaces motifs, responses, constructions and inspirations from readings, associations, the mind and the times. It grasps locations, conversations, short and long journeys. Many of its insights start with the events and reflections of 2008, but it wears the mask of satire, jollity and social construction more than the previous book. Some of the poems are of the contemporary world, while others, perhaps in a cavalier fashion, reach back through the decades, or traverse continents. These poems remain a display and a journey, seeking to make the reader a creative accomplice in the venture they represent. One of the readers of “Stage” reads one poem a day. What a valuable prescription!
