Cloak

By Dodici Azpadu

This collection of poetry, the second in the Margaret Randall Poetry Series, explores Dodici Azpadu's journey from her low-life origins in Red Hook, Brooklyn, through her time at the University of Iowa's MFA program, the street life of San Francisco and the emotional drought she there endured, and her later transformation in Albuquerque and the meditative mountains of New Mexico.

Many poems in Cloak are in free verse, and many are wakas and other syllabic forms. Together, they weave together the elements of a life made whole on the frayed edges of the world.
