Snowbound In Cleveland Comments

A transcendent otherworldliness within a world at once bound, still, shackled immobile by snow, the cold like effect of Cleveland, and yet free, floating, untethered by logic, by strict intellect. The poem moves around within the geography of the mind of the protagonist is an unnerving yet gently familiar way. A death, a drink, a movement of time and an anchoring to the strange continuity that is life. Touching, in an eerie sort of symbiosis between the particular and the universal.
