Run to Tenderness

Poetry. "As quiet as it's kept, Mary-Marcia Casoly has become one of the most soulful poets around. She doesn't miss a thing. Through her big picture, all things walk, but process talks. 'I spread myself out like a petal,' she confides ('Window Bangkok). What might not count to most, she counts. Her gorgeous utterances—emotionally charged with unblinking blinks and unpredictable beats between beats—milk the very vowels of silence and wonder. Mary-Marcia Casoly is an American original"—Al Young.
