Death Becomes Us
Kristen Wittman
These poems chronicle the love, illness, and death of a husband, following the seasons of nature and life, in images that move from birdsong and leafy trees to ice and tornadoes and back again, in forms ranging from the sonnet to the villanelle to the found poem. Personal challenges are juxtaposed with global events, but the joys of travel, physical activity, and quiet meditation are never overlooked.
