Synopsis
Marielle Grenade-Willis's Prairie Crocus inhabits the all-too overlooked in-between of seasons, bursting with quiet, deliberate certainty. Like an illuminator, Grenade-Willis scans the planet for evidence of scintillation—soil and roots, sun and moon—and with them colors the inner-ear. Hers is a gravitational assurance. Prairie Crocus is verse at home in the body of time, a deft affirmation of abundance and scarcity alike. Earth also breathes.

Review
Marielle Grenade-Willis writes about ground and sky and what is in them. She asks to "get swept away before the quicksand tightens." She doesn't need music to sing in Prairie Crocus; the geese "giggling and / crying, chattering / gaggles" do it for her. ⎯ Jack Collom
