TWINEWORK
Twine keeps things snugged up, firmly in place. Who doesn't want to be "entwined" or "intertwined"? James Mitsui's remarkable anthology Measuring Twine snugs us up to the Human Place, this gathering of poems tethered by real experiences to real places. The tighter the weave in this twinework, the sharper our definition of "human." These poets and their poems root themselves firmly in one "place" or another―a country, a bar, a kitchen, a stage of life, position in birth order, mood―to manifest a tapestry of "human." Lean closer, close your eyes. Sniff. Now take a look inside at the myriad ways our places of being contribute to the greater shape of our humanity.
