Each poem enshrouds the reader in a mystery of loss, some minuscule, others astronomical, coaxing them toward revelation. And in what striking forms these revelations manifest: a boy lost forever as \"Mice scuttle in the hay, \/ brittle leaves scratch\/ in the autumn chill\"; a husband struggling with \"the constant problem\/ of breath\"; a plague and its wake of \"crocuses pushing purple into this cold March morning.\" Kerlin's poetry compels you to lean in a little closer, to listen and look with more intention, then rewards you with \"a spill of starlight\" and \"the fragile lace of the human lung.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Minerva Rising Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781950811212\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.00h x 5.00w x 0.12d","brand":"Emily F.
