This book of poems by Steve Sackin of Kansas City as he faces brain cancer is a testimony to the power of writing. Deeply affecting and life-affirming. In Steve's words, "To my surprise, after describing [experiences of being in nature], unexpected concluding commentary appeared I did not believe myself capable of writing. Where did this come from? Surprising, intriguing themes kept emerging again and again. I was not sure what this was about or where it was going, and the only way I was going to find out was to keep writing."
