With provocative insights on every page and new language for the heady, raw experience of being alive, these poems focus their gaze on the existential dilemma of how one finds meaning in a fallen world. They locate themselves in the detritus of modern, consumer life, finding redemption and spiritual sustenance in a landscape beyond words. The poet is more than accomplished; he is simply splendid, and his work offers hope while stripping away the world's disguises, revealing the stable, comforting, agreeable ground of living in the present moment. This is nourishment for the "smoky crevices of the heart."
