--Shara McCallum, author most recently of This Strange Land
"Gabriel Welsch's The Death of Flying Things isn't comprised of elegies so much as love poems written to the long-suffering earth and for those who live on it, 'the sky shattered under the burden of expectation,' as one poem puts it. His poems comprise a complex vision, one up to the task of both recognizing the threat in how 'what is left in the breeze / foretells ash,' and still speaking, with assurance, of loving the magic of how 'the hornets return / to the rusted lantern / bees to the blue mist to drowse /away the cool nights.' These are poems enthralled with words and how they can love the world, from a poet who remembers 'everything sacred comes from the body.'"
--George Looney, author most recently of Monks Beginning to Waltz
