Review:
Dialogue For The Left And Right Hand is a diverse collection of poems orchestrating a complex interplay of voices: lyrical, colloquial, mordant, and (at times) enraged. Whether in fixed forms or free verse, these poems have an energy and architecture all their own. Here are sensuous memories and fictions of the spirit, etchings of people who come alive and walk with us through heaths of snow, and appeals to deities waiting for us at the top of the stairs. Sometimes narrative, sometimes startlingly associative, these poems reflect the skill of a master wordsmith plying the craft and passion of poetic expression. "Who spills a ring of gasoline/Across fresh-fallen snow, imagines/Cross hairs in his sights,/Then lights the edge/And flips the match out on his tongue. -- Midwest Book Review
