These lyrical meditations celebrate poetry as the form of language best fitted to bringing us more deeply and vividly into reality in its many psychic, natural, social, cultural, and spiritual dimensions. Through the beauty, precision, and generosity of their language, the meditations - prose poems themselves - not only pronounce this power but evoke and induct it.
-RODERICK MAIN, University of EssexHere, Richard Berengarten continues to advocate a numinous poetics, expressed in a language filtered through trees, whose oxygen we breathe. This is a poetics conceived in darkness, growing and spreading inexorably into light. For Berengarten, poetry begins and ends, and begins again, in an inherently shared present, spanning generations, where all that's needed is breath.-KATIE LEHMAN, author of Emily Dickinson's Lexicon
