Shelter in Place

By: Kuntz, Laurie

Every poem is a journey and every journey, a poem. The poems in Shelter In Place all begin with a journey to places of heart and mind. Shelter In Place, as the title implies, is a collection of poems which reflects upon finding a place of safety and acceptance while grappling with societal and personal issues of dissension, alienation, and assimilating into one's own personal strength and identity. It is also a book of transitions, the poet's voice visits all the stages of life from wanderer, partner, mother, lover, and all the epiphanies that come between. Whether it be watching a father and son playing ball, or watching a lover reach for the last mango in the fridge, or witnessing displacement of war torn peoples-the journeys we take in life, the journeys and the destinations we reach all can be the making of a poem, and these poems, the making of Shelter In Place.
