If, in this book, you are expecting a kind of language poetry that treats words as playthings and eschews meaning, it's not here. The words in these poems reflect a cognitive approach made of layers. Ways of thinking get bent a little when the deeper levels of consciousness are allowed to have their play. On the surface these poems may appear simple-lithe gatherings woven into something slightly strange but vaguely familiar. Possibly what's happening here is that there is a different kind of sense-making at work. One not held hostage by the one-dimensional, linear tradition of the daytime brain but more interconnected, web-like in how it draws together its behaviors. The poems here serve as testimony to the fact that certain forms of understanding are best produced not by reductionist thinking but when informed by complexity. The task, of course, is to state that simply-words simple, ideas not. When successful, memory might be enticed to linger a while and learn something. Expect to find in these little wisdoms more of the unusual than the mundane, more surprise than tradition. Even so, there will often be that palpable something that says, "this just might be true."
