Poetry. This prose-poem sequence opens with the following sentence: "Scenes left on the cutting room floor flower into their own scenery." Such an auspiciously suggestive start functions as a distillation of the book's prismatic echo chamber, where painterly lyricism and narrative probing converge within each musically astute sentence. This is a symphony of partial happenings, ghostly movements, and investigatory ruminations, a stroll through an exhibit of painting that seem to stare back at the viewer: captivating, gorgeous, and just a little bit scary. Sara Veglahn is the author of several chapbooks, teaches prose workshops and literature seminars in Naropa's Department of Writing and Poetics and is the current Associate Editor of the DENVER QUARTERLY.
