Passing Measures: Selected Poems

by Peter Riley

Peter Riley is chiefly interested in making a poetry that is “available” rather than “accessible.” The poem offers the reader entry into an experience of the world mediated by the passionate needs of the shaping spirit, while seeking to avoid a reductive or confirming complicity.

I read this very casually and not in order but I've been meaning to return to it and spend more time with it.
