The poems of Seeing Again are both concrete and imagistic. Sometimes surreal, they evoke a sense of place in the heart and mind as well as in the world. Light on the page, they balance like a mobile, sing visually. Powell's rich imagination inspires the reader to tap into their own, to join him in his exploration of the ordinary and the astonishing.
Danyen Powell uses unique language and spacing between words and lines that allow his words to blossom out of mystery into meaning. With this book he leaves us a legacy of beautiful poems.
-ALLEGRA JOSTAD SILBERSTEIN, Inaugural Poet Laureate of Davis, California
These poems celebrate the world's wonders and reveal his own deep connection with it and his compassion for all that lives.
-ANN CONRADSEN, poet, Sacramento, California
Seeing Again builds a secret garden by words, which is the labyrinth of unknown human darkness...to find the way out with great passion... explore complexity in his almost minimized forms.
-BEI DAO, poet, editor of Jintian, Beijing, China
Danyen Powell's new collection of poems rings with emotional intensity and visual clarity. He is a poet who observes the world closely-both its physical and human elements-and brings them together in resonant juxtaposition. Each poem has its own heartbeat and invites the reader to connect with it.
-SHAWN PITTARD, author of Shelter in Place and Witness
