Dislocations (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780889779303)

In all these poems
I'm partly somewhere else.
With you, without you,
walking toward you or away,
but you are there, your small face
watching from the shadow of a doorway
or a set of stairs, from behind a curtain or a table.
Sometimes I see you at the piano.
You stop playing, turn to me,
and in that pause,
tell me something necessary.

Poet Karen Enns takes the reader on a lyrical journey, wrapped in the vicissitudes of seasons and weather--while observing human and other-than-human lives. Enns invites us to peer and is concerned always with the locations and dislocations perspective implies and creates.
