Between the Hours

Between the Hours is a collection of poems, some in prose form, that meditate on the paradoxical nature of time. Using spare language to evoke "a mystery inside the clear day," each poem reveals a glimpse of a liminal space unseen and most often overlooked when we are focused on daily concerns. Beginning with "Cloud 0," the collection traces through lost hours, darkness, wind, sleep, snow to gather a sense of what passes through. The word "clear" appears many times in this chapbook that opens "a hand in a dream/that doesn't let go." The imagery, often from the natural world, conjures memories and dreams as well as history, science, philosophy and spirituality transforming the moment into one of eternity.
