These are the people we are. Saint Friend, / carry me when I am tired and carry yourself. / Let's keep singing the songs we don't live by / let's meet tomorrow. Saint Friend is a book of empathy. Its ten lyric poems are troubled with the prospect of satisfying the wants and needs of others. While some of the poems take place in realistic settings or concern real people--an airport, Amelia Earhart--this is a book where fantasy and reality are ultimately indistinguishable. SaintFriend is also a book about how we continue living while overwhelmed by loss and how we band together to survive. It is a freewheeling explosion of celebrations, elegies, narratives, psychologically raw persona pieces. It is at times bizarre and at times heartbreaking. It is, as the title suggests, a book exalting love among friends in our scattered times.
