Summary:
Here is a voice of America singing, Mary E. Weems is a poet laureate
of Cleveland Heights, but also of Ohio, the Midwest, and America. Her
relentless journeys into the truth of experience make her a
spokesperson for us all. As Patricia smith says, "In this deftly
crafted collection--defiantly rooted in the real world--Mary Weems'
stanzas manage to be both tight and explosive, concise and wildly
lyrical. She brings an enviable experience to the page, an experience
fueled by unerring focus and a knowledge of just what it takes to
jolt a reader out of complacency."That Mary sings of Barak Obama here
is only a reminder of how clear and full is her awareness. She too
finds dreams growing in the streets.
