The poems in this collection comprise a unity of poetic imagination. The connective tissue between them is a union of both time and space. Poetry’s aim is to cast light on human experience, and even though several of these poems consist of inanimateness, each poem is still endowed with a familiar spirit, a whispering demon, a meditated plan of action.
