In this new collection of 92 poems written in the first half of 2011] earth, wind, fire and water are Stewart Warren's muses. Each image has for its ground of being, one of these elements and each one makes his poems sing. Likewise, many of his poems are grounded in a kind of spiritual renaissance: whether or not he's speaking of loss, of blood, of guilt, of love, or trees, rivers and ghosts, in Stewart's hard-earned southwest rhythms, they not only continue to sing, "they will just keep circling." There are some beautiful, tough, big-spirited things going on in this book. In his landscapes, the echoes often return, and when they do, there is something to be learned and shared. -John Macker, poet Author of Underground Sky and Woman of the Disturbed Earth
