This collection leaves me enchanted and unsettled in the very best way. How to weave magic out of things I think about so often, whether I want to or not (birds, flowers, god, corpses, dreams). I have so much to learn.

My favorite overtly humanist poems. They make me want to believe in believing. They so carefully, so thoughtfully chart the process of trying to believe in believing. Lovely, heartbreaking, rigorous poems.

Golly, can you give us a little space to breathe, Kelly? These are some long and thick poems.

An astounding collection of poems. I hear Kelly read at Purdue University before these came out and was nailed to my seat during the reading of all of the poems that ended up in this volume, including the title poem. A vital poet and someone I anxiously await further volumes from.
