Poems on relationship, intimacy, and longing, the poetics of postcards, and places real and imagined.
This book of prose poems is a collection of collaged visual images-some randomly recollected-others noted as the author apprehended them. Woven through the visual images are descriptions of sensation/perception that arise with the memory of place.
The collection has three parts: 'Together/Apart' is specifically a subjective excavation of relationships, 'Postcards' speaks to a lifelong attachment to correspondence and its directness, and 'Place' is about situations/places that the author has invented or re-imagined.
Steve Clorfeine is a writer, performer, director, and coach with a long association to the Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado, and the State University of New York.

His other books include Field Road Sky and While I was Dancing: 22 Poems. Steve lives with his wife in Kingston, New York, and in New York City.
