"In each of these finely crafted prose poems, Amy Genova borrows seven words from poets, grocery lists, journals, conversations and creates true magic out of the absolutely ordinary, otherwise un-illumined, corners of our lives."David Shumate, poet emeritus at Marian University and a lecturer at Butler University. The other day, I strolled into Safeway. Legs swinging. Arms swinging. I stopped in the aisle. Reached for a small package of elbow macaroni. Held it up to the grocery store light and squeezed the cellophane. Its elegance of small tubes, red rose, and inky words on the wrap touched me... Entertain yourself with a short masterpiece.
