Publisher Description: These thirty-seven poems are eccentric in the true meaning of the word-off-center. Their titles, bearing the names of weeds, flowers, herbs, trees, are merely points of departure. How hard can it be," the poet asks, "to lie down in the green / mussed bed of the senses... In clover." Whether it's clover or rue, aspen or moss, the reader is invited into that rumpled but rich bed." --Maxine Kumin About the Author(s) Melissa Kwasny is the author of "The Archival Birds" (Bear Star Press, 2000), and editor of "Toward the Open Field: Poets on the Art of Poetry 1800 - 1950" (Wesleyan University Press, 2004). She has also published two novels, most recently "Trees Call for What They Need." Ms. Kwasny lives in Jefferson City, Montana. |
