Ascension

By Giovanni Singleton

Poetry. In this diary of intentionality, the behearer and the beholder approach the world with an attitude of longing for less: less sorrow, less suffering. Daily practice delivers the speaker to profound meditations on the nature of the self. These poems press against our deepest held questions: what is an I? Where are my borders? What or how am I "with"? "From whom from what do we hide?" "This little book of few words is immense in its silences, depths of ambiguity, range of feeling dark, light, umber, copper, sienna full of strange inward jottings (graphically adventurous) that echo and dance in a reader's mind. ASCENSION's quiet absences are fully, passionately, present you can almost hear the music the title suggests, and the loss and wonder that goes with it" Norman Fischer."
