Night Court

Night Court leaves us hungry for more of the poet’s open, probing, leaping intelligence, her wild associations and surprises in the unexpected shivering sweetness of a love story where joy scrambles sadness. We hear the clatter of souls entering bodies and experience spring’s lizard stealth as sadness, longing and reluctance are transformed by breath-stopping beauty. Like a creature in the forest, the poet will rub my cheek against the night. And she reminds us a prince waits, perhaps for centuries, until we wake.
