At the heart of Jeff Hardin's inventive seventh collection Watermark, a devotional, philosophical faith seeks to know what can't be known, to step into, as if a sanctuary, some deeper / deep / than what our words / can touch. In each poem, his meditations stitch back through a visible, vertical phrase-a whispered prayer, a watermark-that serves not only to anchor thought but also to align and to re-align the purpose of thought within this bent and broken world. Born from Frost, Dickinson, Rilke, Whitman, and others, these phrases bind us and bless us at a time when it seems the words / to enter others' lives / are disappearing. In an age in which it is increasingly difficult to sort out what is true, Hardin's poems invite us to wake to the mystery all around us, to time's revelatory unfolding, and to how our minds might find healing, if not communion, if only we listened intently enough to hear the intercessions / made on our behalf.
