These poems invite us in to the spaces between things, into …a pause of breath/ between the known/ and the next…between the lake/and the coral clouds/of morning… They invite us to let go for a time of the words inside of us and to just make a space, to experience liminal places of possibilities without ever being pushed across any particular threshold. Cooper invites us to make a space, to let our bodies fill with a million stars, to linger the way …green lingers/in the trees… and to notice how ….the old poems/make a beautiful fire… These are the kinds of poems that can keep a person warm and you might say human, …you might say/shimmering…
