Cross Tie 4.13.15: Jennifer K. Sweeney

Cast the eye cleanly
against the horizon, a snow

of cottonwood
hazing the plumb line.
March is a fly-by-night bird


                  from "The Day Everywhere and White" at Construction

I admire Jennifer K. Sweeney, author of Salt Memory (Perugia 2006), How To Live on Bread and Music (Main Street Rag 2009) and Little Spells (New Issues Press, 2015).  She attended the Prague Summer Program with me in 2008. I love the finessed and fluid language and agile metaphors in her poetry.
