Fall Risk

<p>In the title poem of this poetry collection Bill McCarthy uses the fall risk bracelet he received while hospitalized a decade ago to remind himself and his readers that we're all at risk of falling-stumbling in a relationship overlooking a personal blind spot or facing the consequences of a poor decision. While not shying away from life's complexities the poems in <em>Fall Risk</em> through thoughtful observations of the natural world and human society chronicle a life in search of meaning. </p>
