“Meanings that waver around the concrete but dissipate when you close in on them. An indeterminance that is still very solid. [S]ubtle metaphorical images. The person who is unbuttoned. The rain that is shivering. The person becomes objectified. The rain becomes subjectified. Yet there is the barest of motion in this transformation. Here we are enticed into a number of images that keep the poem moving without settling into some expected message.” Chris Gordon
