Endings have always been harder for me than beginnings. As a younger poet (like many, I think) I felt the urge to wrap up a poem in a clever way, or with some epiphany. But I'm increasingly drawn to poems that resist closure and leave lots of room to wander and wonder.

Given our shared interests, Pamela, this sounds like a book I immediately need in my library! I happen to share a birthday with Gary Snyder, which I think is pretty cool.

It gets even better, Aaron, I'm going to read it at Camp Naivelt!
