First Life
Poetry. "In FIRST LIFE, Burt Kimmelman captures the tactile language of childhood and the sensate world of the pre-verbal and newly verbal. His poems are intricate and wise nursery rhymes exploring the intimacies of family life-what takes place just off camera in home videos, right outside the frames of snapshots"-Denise Duhamel. "Burt Kimmelman is finely tuned to the mute moments when there is nothing more to tell our children, so there is only poem"-James L. Weil. Saddlestapled.
