Becoming Clear is the 29th grouping of new work by the author and artist Robert Benefiel. The poems presented here were written during a recent and extraordinarily prolific period in the author's life. Sometimes intricate, sometime straightforward, the title itself suggests a dual possibility of feeling one is fading into non-existence while at the same time becoming enlightened, and the work inside tries to reflect that. Whether the pieces reflect on meeting a man living in a friend's garage as a child (The Dibney Museum), past work experiences for minimum wage jobs (A Card For Joey), marriages ending but not quite over (Temptation Comes Along), or just recognizing one's endurance through horrible times (23 And Counting), the work inside tries to address what it's like to realize something while sacrificing something to become enlightened.
