Poetry. Marcia Roberts' work reminds us that poetic object histories tell in fragmentary ways, offering their accumulating evidence to the steady compassionate gaze of the open eye. The meanings thus presented stay open ended, finally to be arranged not by the discovering poet but by the reader-observer, to whom the privileged work of interpretation and judgement is reserved by an act of reticent deference on the poet's part"--Tom Clark. Macia Roberts grew up in South Dakota nad has lived in many other places, including Spain, Maryland, Texas and California. She earned a MA from Hardin-Simmons University and most recently studied Poetics at New College of California. She currently lives in San Francisco.
