Description
"'Hard to hear new music. / Hard to let that meandering dentist / work,' Tim Kelly tells us in one of [these] strikingly original poems. And though the book is firmly rooted in the body and its often painful reawakenings (Kelly is a physical therapist), it is, finally, the mind bending the poems that engages and holds the reader with the subtle and accurate connections it makes.
If your mental muscle tone is growing sluggish, Articulation is guaranteed to flex the imagination and restore full mobility."
