shimmering: haiku of Lee Hudspeth

$20.00

“There is something essential and deep about shimmering. It comes from within. Beginning to end there is a glow that persists throughout. Like friendship. Or sunrise. Or music. A change of voice. A step off the planet and back again. A footstep that endures and comes back to you. Lee’s haiku do that. You’ll hear the echoes as you close the book. And want to open it again . . .”
— Kathabela Wilson (President, Tanka Society of America)

Description

“Hudspeth’s fine collection deploys literature’s tiniest form as a kind of space probe, revealing wonder after wonder in the great expanses and furthest reaches of the world, the cosmos and our own consciousness (both waking and dreaming). Here the “desert night sky” appears “open during construction” — a project that puts mankind’s most ambitious works in their proper place: “city lights… / the stars / they will never be.” May the shimmer of these poems wash over and refresh you!”
— Scott Mason (Author, The Wonder Code)

sunrise
the river
changes key


between breaths the entire forest


Mars walkabout
beyond the dunes
more red dunes


synaptic gap
the width
of this dreamscape


yesterdays —
through the screen
the stars
