Weaving diverse cultures, vast landscapes, and ecological concerns, crossing beauty with danger, these poems are an invitation to the realm of possibility and enchantment. A flamenco dancer seduces his audience in Spain, and lovers travel through Istanbul. Writers live in exile while a menu for a dictator endangers the earth. The full moon shines over the Serengeti as nocturnal animals gather. Glaciers of Mount Kilimanjaro melt too quickly. A poet writes from his house near the beached skeleton of a whale. Lanterns in the Night Market is a love letter to the world.
