This first compilation of Jim Koss's poetry offers a selection of textual work previously known only through his one-of-a-kind and small edition artist's books. In Koss's work thrives the idea of constant discovery alongside a timelessness and quiet enormity of scale. The enormity exists in reserved guises: a meeting in two creeks; a tulip petal, fog, changing light, remnants of spirits, a stillness as of colored glass. Often, landscape is the vocabulary of the poems, influenced by sojourns in the Midwest, West, Japan, and in between. The power of place affords spaciousness for reminiscence, inquiry, reconciliation. Koss's meticulously crafted work translates vast ideas into intimate contemplations beheld, like a book, in the hand.
