In Bill Yake's second collection of poetry, he begins in his home territory just south of Puget Sound and circles outwards from the Olympic Mountains to Papua New Guinea, from the Neolithic to last year, from irony to philosophy. These poems explore natural phenomena, human interactions, habitats and landscapes with the eye of a naturalist and an ear tuned to the music of language . The work unfolds with surprise, humor, and imagination. Enjoy.
