Easy Does It: Poems

Jennifer Moore

In Easy Does It, Jennifer Moore’s second full-length collection, the speaker brings the reader on an exploration of multiple worlds: the social, the domestic, and the pastoral, considering the difficult questions and problems of the self–of memory, history, grief, and desire. The poems move from buzzing, bewildering environments where hide and seek becomes Save yourself and nothing ever / does it easy in pursuit of clarity, beauty, and stillness. With colloquial humor and curiosity, the speaker investigates her subjects in tones that range from the wry to the resigned to the powerful. Through linguistic echo and metaphorical transformation, the familiar is made strange and the strange feels like home.
