Weightlifting Rules

By Jean Barrett Holloway

Poetry. "Jean Barrett Holloway's honest and original poems lead into the obsessions of a world where failure, pain, sweat, blood, injury, and the inevitable ice baths are just a breath away from magic: moments when mind, bones, muscle, and the whole world's weight become light as air and 'gravity blinks.' Using technical exactness and precision as well as a seriousness that cannot be exaggerated, these poems bewitch and compel, immerse us in the dark energy of 'the dungeon, ' in wit, tenderness, determination, and vanity as lifters strive to perfect the transitory art of defying physics."
