Between the I's: Poetry From First Person To First Person

by Mike Cohen

Here are poems that have fulfilled a poet's dream, drawing from audiences frequent collective laughter, occasional collective sighs, now and again collective gasps, and the applause (oh, yes, the applause).... The collective boils away. Now the room is quiet. It's just the words and the minor revelations that turned the words to poems and the reader, who meets the poems in the same solitude where the writer discovered them. The reading is primarily a first person experience, just as the writing was. Now it's personal again. This is the perspective of poems leaping the gap in an arc that connects writer and reader - a luminous arc that lights the way between the I's.
