Peter Jastermsky’s latest collection traces the arc of a long marriage
from beginning to end—and beyond, to imagining a new start. The
poet’s mastery of short forms is on full view here, from senryu and
monoku to cherita and concrete poetry. Yet his creative gift soars with a
form called the “ransom note,” which presents a cryptic message for
the reader to decipher. By the last page, the promise of “As Clear As It’s
Ever Been” has been fulfilled many times over, permeated by a
poignant sense of love won and lost—“chalk mandala/in short/the
wind.”
Cynthia Anderson, author of The Far Mountain and Full Circle
