Realignment

Synopsis

Realignment Is An Extended Meditation On The Human Condition, Shifting Perspective From Poem To Poem To Embody A Variety Of Cultural Milieus. A Disruption In Morning Ritual Realigns One's Day. A Painter Switching Brushes Realigns His Style. A Break In Syntax Corresponds With An Abrupt Change Of Pattern In An Afghan Carpet. Like A Gentle Winding Down, The Poems In Realignment Address The Self-understanding Brought On By Changing Memories Of The Past And, Ultimately, The Realignment Of Removal, Vanishing, And Farewell Consume The Heart Of The Book.
