<p>Poetry. Poems that skitter between life and death, "sleep and hurry," at their heart a kind of tender panic. By turns funny, frank, mysterious, and heartbreaking, STANDING IN THE FLOCK OF CONNECTIONS, Heather Cadsby's fifth collection of poetry, is one hundred proof associative thought. These poems testify to the human mind's capacity to "do"--taking into account all of the performative, causal, athletic, and sexual connotations of that verb. Many of them come in on an overheard conversation or monologue--mid-fight, mid-stride--and the absent details and specifics often function to open up a space for things to become other things, for the flock of connections to swarm.</p>
