This book is the result of roughly five years of writing poetry and reading it out in the Mid-Hudson Valley's poetry scene. This is my sharing with you my most cherished, personal, playful and deep imaginings. Now I get to put them together into a format that makes a greater whole. I hope you enjoy and are moved and challenged. The groups of poems-most of them anyway-are called Flows. This is because each chapter is a separate entity, a movement through various realms of material, with each having a beginning, a journey, and a conclusion.

This book is the result of roughly five years of writing poetry and reading it out in the Mid-Hudson Valley's poetry scene. This is my sharing with you my most cherished, personal, playful and deep imaginings. Now I get to put them together into a format that makes a greater whole. I hope you enjoy and are moved and challenged. The groups of poems-most of them anyway-are called Flows. This is because each chapter is a separate entity, a movement through various realms of material, with each having a beginning, a journey, and a conclusion. I see this collection as something to be read slowly and chewed on. Poetry is a chance to speak in a deep and concentrated way. It seems to create the opportunity for poets to delve deeply into themselves or, alternatively, to disappear and allow the events and surroundings to penetrate them. It is also an opportunity for wonder and laughter. Cousins. And then we get to report. After many hours of delving and diving-I am pleased to pass this report on. Now you get to see where it takes you. Happy Travels!
Poetry is a relatively late addition to Gary Siegel's pursuits, which include being a multi-instrumentalist, a juggler, and a Tai Chi practitioner, among others. He entered the world of poetry in the late '70s but only in the last eight years or so has written his own material regularly. His method is to start with inspiration, dive in deeply, and then work hard on the realization of the work. It often includes vision. Or humor. There has been very little effort to publish until now, rather he has immersed himself in three things: his subjects, his writing, and presenting his works in the poetry scene in the Mid Hudson Valley of New York State. He is a working poet, hands dirty and out reading-just about every poem in this book has been read to an audience and most of them more than once. He lives together with his wife not far from the water and is a psychotherapist when he is not following trails in the woods and cracks in the world.
