Steal Away: Selected and New Poems

Do I have a high opinion of poetry because I don't understand it? It's like watching a telenovela, is it so entertaining because I don't understand Spanish and fill in the blanks of my knowledge with the promise of something better? Sometimes I think so, and sometimes I think not, but it doesn't matter because at the end of the page I'm having a good time. Only bits and pieces of STEAL AWAY: SELECTED AND NEW POEMS by C.D. Wright were comprehensible for me. I picked up on the eroticism, but it was masked in imagery far less explicit than I'm familiar with from my days editing porn mags. That's a good thing. I could use more subtly and an organic intimacy over narratives that operate like a penis pump. There are stories here as well as verse, cryptic yet specific, evocative, personal and political. I rode Wright's fine language and was never disappointed where it took me. There's something I love about reading what I don't get but gets me to keep reading.
