Refusing the illusions with which we too easily screen reality, these are poems whose mastery of craft enables their clarity of vision, whose cadenced language and wit enlivens poems that seem written for our threatened time.How I admire their candor, the cool stamina of these poems, along with their warm affection, their knowledge of pasture and parlor, the full keyboard: This is all, nature and art." -Eleanor Wilner, Before Our Eyes: New and Selected Poems, 1975-2017"Loosestrife for Porcupines is a beautifully crafted reflection of the intimacies of the natural world. Here, fiddler crabs raise their machine-gun claws like tiny gangsters. Named and nameless winds begin to stir. Balanced against these appreciations comes listable sorrows, from the swollen oceans and the albino crows of Chernobyl to stars disappearing over the shifting bones of an aging planet. Inevitably, Gordon turns to us and asks, without judgement or malice, have we been wise? Craving joy, keenly insightful as they are compassionate, these stunning poems- both individually and collectively-are a timely and necessary gift."-Mary A Koncel, The Last Blonde
