"Wier is a poet concerned with capturing the fluidity of thought and experienceand not diminishing its forward charge in doing so. Wier's lines have always had a wild whitewater crash to them, overwhelming any vessel she pours them into." Boston Globe
"That's how one human leaves us" ends the first poem of Dara Wier's direct and powerful new collection, a raw and fluid exploration of grief. Wier records her thoughts with intelligence, clarity, honesty, and immediacy, showing us the unraveling of her world and her new consciousness after a great loss.

have such life
in and so of them
they would burn
in ways
so present
we would begin
to smell smoke and think fire
