There are a number of fine poems in this collection, and Merwin's use of language and his varied subjects are commendable. However, sometimes the language drifts to the needlessly archaic and verbose.
My poem "Bad Dreams" is included in the inaugural issue of "The Birds We Piled Loosely" http://birdspiledloosely.wordpress.com/2014/10/01/october-2014-issue/
My poem “Climbing the Red Dog Road” has been published in From the Depths by Haunted Waters Press. You can order a copy here: https://www.magcloud.com/browse/issue/1687827 Thank you Editor Susan Warren Utley.
