Minutes Are Circling Spokes

This book covers a wide range - from the attack on the World Trade Center to manic depression to poems responding to Emily Dickinsons. There are poems about Stein and Van Gogh, not to mention lambent poems to Sue. Anyone who cracks this book will feel well nurtured. In an age where prose prevails, these poems are lyrical, yet there are several non-rhyming poems with microscopic color.
