Awake

by Green Panda Press (Illustrator), Ingrid Swanberg

Overview

Ingrid Swanberg's Awake is little pats and punches of darkbeauty interspersed amid lightruths. They are poems that grab me straight off, because they are not laid or written with a heavy pen. There is nothing cumbersome or tiresome about this verse, but rather, something invigorating and soul-lifting. Does that sound like a bunch of rhetoric? Try some:


bitte


dawn.

slow turn of winter.

the earth endures.

rose light on breastfeathers

under the sky.

the sorrow of love.

dark chime.

gentle pat of

snow

flakes






And this excerpt from her poem 'Fathom':


"its surge

unfathomed

the sting of tears

still unwept

white falling

into white.


there it is again"



Ingrid Swanberg's Awake is visual and spiritual and important.
