Some Cares - Benjamin Friedlander - Bog

Benjamin Friedlander's first book in twelve years, Some Cares, is also his most autobiographical. Moving deftly from crude fact to abstract condition, the poems document a difficult decade of eldercare and mourning, of aging, unease, and fragmented knowledge. Of light and dark in alternation, seasonal rhythm, currents of feeling The five stages of history Isolation Barter Amnesia Denial Anger Depression Everything gets to happenat least once, hypothetically;the eventual will occur.It all comes down like snow, but doesn't stick My heart is a cup that never fills. I sip from it on occasion.
