Creance; Or, Comest Thou Cosmic Nazarite: Poems
(Part of the Drinking Gourd Chapbook Poetry Prize Series)
No Customer Reviews
In Creance; or, Comest Thou Cosmic Nazarite, Andrew Colarusso hybridizes lost and unknown spaces, taking his title from a falconry term for the cord used to restrain a bird. The word derives from the late fifteenth century, from the French cr?ance ("faith"), also denoting a cord to retain a bird of peu de cr?ance ("of little faith," i.e., which cannot yet be relied upon). Poems of personal narrative and metaphorical depth speak for the voices searching--in a world that lashes out or looks right past what remains tethered to the past--the parts that occupy the whispers of wanting, the dreams of finally being seen.
