Poetry. SOME TIME IN THE WINTER is an extended non-linear poetic sequence that includes unexpected juxtapositions and shifts in tempo among images, subjects, and both familiar and unfamiliar ways of talking, presenting, and being. The range is extraordinary; it includes comic moments, breathtaking masterful passages and short sequences, and extended meditations on time, distance, location. So many extraordinary images jump off almost every page: "my books / were extinguished by a flood of milk"; "to the extent stars fed, it would rain"; "A glove every ornament / on the calendar instructs"; "Wind flapped through tin prey." All of this is put together in a way that feels inevitable and complete. This is a masterful work by a poet whose unique power and command of beauty have been noted by other poets such as Robert Creeley, John Ashbery, and James Tate.
