Bryce Passage

by Daniel Morris

Poetry. In this book the theme of journeying is predominant, as is the idea of coming to know the self in dialogue with others. The poems early in this collection tend to focus on art, artists, or the act of making, whether in the elevated sphere of the Jules Olitski-Clement Greenberg variety, or in the earthier realms of the Beach Boys, Porn Queens, and Feelies lead singer who is discussed by Linus (not the Peanuts character, but the failed artist of Greek myth). After several poems that concern self-portraiture and the act of making art as a form of person construal, come poems concerning growing up, traveling, and work. The collection ends with poems that offer signs of homecoming or redemption after a struggle that has involved personal loss and misfortune.
