Iron Mountain Winter

<p>Iron Mountain Winter may infiltrate the psyche during nights of foreboding skies skeletal trees and frozen earth but this surreal blanket can descend anywhere or time; during a shaman's fast at a besieged Phnom Penh cafe thumbing rides along the interstate riding fence in thawing high country or walking tranquil cemeteries. Pregnant with disquieting emotions feelings and reflections; it persists an instant seconds minutes hours or lifetimes. This collection's ninety poems and vignettes build sequentially to capture this mood; all too familiar to those who experience it. </p><p><br></p>
