Part confession, part eulogy, part meandering love note, part expression of guilt, Someone Used to Live Here, Long Ago explores the quiet aftermath of consuming blaze. Two poems carry the namesake of the collection, first introducing a lingering uneasiness after tasting the empty shadow of the ending of all things, and ultimately recognizing the purpose of death and loss as a means of returning to a posture of encouraged growth.Someone Used to Live Here, Long Ago is an aching anthology that asks only for the means to understand, and coming up empty-handed, finds the solace and comfort in realizing that nature fills all vacuums.
