These prose poems speak of deep connection and tragicomic gaps in understanding, as lifes pedantic, transcendent rhythms are mined for revealing moments and messages. Elements include dialogue overheard in northern Minnesota coffee shops and at the Jersey shore, personal crashes and landings in the aftermath of the Soviet Union, and queer identity in middle age. The final section of the book is a series of text messages sent by the poet to herself during a crucial election season, examining daily life, dreamscape, and the collective psyche in a time of political upheaval. Gard attempts to map out, complicate, and bridge divides, concluding that a sense of belonging, and a shared sense of home, may be the most important thing we have to offer each other. $c Provided by publisher. 650 $a POETRY / American 650 $a American poetry 650 $a Prose poems 650 $a Duluth (Minn.) 700 1 $a Shavin, Julie Kim $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20230526010154.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A670BE3CFB8A11ED91D0939B58ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
