Additional Thanks

I owe numerous people a thousand bows for their help, encouragement, and assistance in the making and shaping of these poems and this book. I thank my father, sister, and my wife for being my most bedrock supporters, both in life and in my pursuits. I thank the luminous poets Bill Jones, Kathy Cottle, Clarinda Harriss, Edgar Silex, and Lisa Bickmore for being early readers of this manuscript, and for their comments and suggestions. Every publishing team who previously published many these works individually, some in earlier form, deserves immense gratitude for seeing their worth and in sharing them with others. Thank you also to the crew at Apprentice House Books for your care and labor in making this book possible. Finally, I recognize and bow deeply to Naropa University, and to my esteemed instructors there, including Anne Waldman, Steven Taylor, Andrew Schelling, and, in memoriam, Anselm Hollo, Joanne Kyger, Jack Collom, and Allen Ginsberg.

Some of the work in this book was written and edited during a residency at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, made possible by a grant from Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation.
