Reviews of Animate, Inanimate Aims
Midwest Book Review
by Susan Bethany, November 2006
"An assortment of stark, original black-and-white illustrations bookend the free-verse poetry that dissects observations into minimalist composition. Some stanzas shrink to a single word; others expound with luminous, discrete detail in this uniquely vivacious collection. "Inevitably": A horse obeys // But only in relation / To the race // Rhymes with disgrace // Propulsion and steering / Power / Buck / Jump / With arched back // Note the effect of rapidity and / Confusion. Sloggering. No this / Can't be comprehended / By pure reason /Elucidated by ambiguity / Time is pregnant"
