The Silence Between

" the silence between mysterious, profound, sophisticated, captivating, startlingly different word-rhythms that make you laugh...and tremble a poet who knows how to turn the language inside out and leave striking, luminescent images swirling in your mind that prickle your skin...a read to read again and again! When you read, "creation will leave you downwinged / in bone-riddled dust/ but not behind”, you begin to sense this isn't just poetry, it is silken sheets layered in word arrangements you've never seen, music you've never heard and you are becoming the poet's spiritkindred, becoming the poem itself, becoming sensual, becoming sparkle-blooded and real. Pour two fingers or a glass of milk, lean back and get ready to feel a book that will echo the silence between where you were and where you are...with a new touch, a shivering moon, something you've never known until the moment releases you.
