Gerald Locklin writes of Glenn Cooper’s work: “ I have thought very highly of Glenn Cooper’s work for many years, he’s a throwback to the glory days of the WR. A first-rate poet in the debut of a very attractive series.”
This mini-chap “Some Natural Things,” by Glenn W. Cooper that is published and illustrated by Henry Denander, has poetry that is flooded with evocative images. “Flooded” is the key word here because many of the poems deal with rain and water in general. And since we are all made up of 70% or more of water, these poems should provide us with a heightened “stream” of consciousness.
In the poem: “Small Room” rain settles, paints and haunts:
“ A little bit of rain settles,
the summer dust, fills
the night time with memories
of people long gone,
as lightning paints
the walls
of this small room
with images I don’t want
to interpret.”
And in “No Contest” the poet bows to a superior bard:
every time
it’s raining I go
inside to write
a poem
about the rain
but nothing
ever
measures up.
the rain always
wins.
I go
back outside.
Highly Recommended.
