Poetry. "The poems in this collection, CLERESTORY, are designed to capture the sentiments and subjects which come into view from a certain vantage point, the dwelling place of the mind. The poet equates that place with a particular architectural feature, the clerestory. The text, as a whole, might be considered a long poem employing all the construction materials necessary to build from the ground story to the roof or outermost point. In this delicate progression, each new floor represents a station in life. Using the element of solitude as a leitmotif, the poet examines the perks and pitfalls of that life, an existence embodying the protean spirits, light and air."--Irene Mitchell
