God, Maybe - Trish Reeves
Imagery and metaphor dance-sometimes a boudoir dance, sometimes a bonfire dance, often a danse macabre-through this book of poetry. They lead the reader from the early rituals and conundrums of humankind through history-The Calf Bearer of the Acropolis, the paintings of Luca Signorelli and Caravaggio, the eastern shore of the Potomac River as homeland of the Picowaxen Nation, the Philadelphia witch trial of Margaret Mattson and Yeshro Hendrickson of 1683, St. Louis Cardinals' baseball games heard over the radio, plus small-town carnivals of the 1950s and Stephen Hawking-to present ancient and contemporary people who sought, and continue to seek, their paths through the universe. Poet Trish Reeves demonstrates a fine ear for the rhythms of each dance, and a dedication to craft.
