The moment, taken

the moment, taken is Jennifer Compton''s eleventh book of poetry. At this late stage she has yielded to the absolute lure of eidectic memory. That is - ''relating to or denoting images having unusual vividness and detail as if actually visible.'' And there is the pleasure in poetry for her. The damage, the drama, the tableau, the tall tale and true. It must be knocked out of true. There are rules.
