The poem's leaping connections harmoniously join an odd geography of emotional and physical material into a most beautiful composition. Throughout this volume each reader will discover special favorites from among the 29 individual poems. Eady locates the dance in a marvelous array of possibilities: April, Johnny in his red shoes, umbrellas and the wooden pillars that hold up the roof, lip synchers, boom box totcrs, gravity, lipstick, crows on a windy roof, the allnight clerk who "behind the bullet-proof glass sways his hips." Throughout, the language is accessible and direct, clean in spirit and statement, delightfully innocent and honest. He doesn't pretend to know all the answers to the pop of fingers or the beat's bop, and in "The Poetic Interpretation of the Twist" admits with adept understatemerit " - . .
