Digest Might our everyday existence be

Might our everyday existence be worthy of a blessing too

her two children

Mia's secret comedy career

working toward it gives our work and our life meaning

showing how the intimate dramas in our homes inescapably compete for energy and attention with the shared public dramas of our times

Digest Might our everyday existence beFrom Epicurus to Sam Cooke, the Daily News to Roots, Digest draws from the present and the past to form an intellectual, American identity. In poems that forge their own styles and strategies, we experience dialogues between the written word and other art forms. Within this dialogue we hear Ben Jonson, we meet police K 9s, and we find children negotiating a sense of the world through a father's eyes and through their own.
