How every person yearns for time travel, a chance to re-experience the essence of memories and relations. This is why I deeply appreciate the work of Nancee Cline, with her poems of great insight and detailed history, how she explores and illuminates time, how she may articulate “beauty unspeakable” and concepts of past and reverie. For “all the last mornings,” for the past that renews, I welcome her burnished and valued work, every image, every dance-step.

–Nicholas Samaras, Hands of the Saddlemaker

 

Her words are like tiramisu among store bought chocolate chip cookies.

To me, the poems in Cline’s extraordinary book Blurry Things are about many of the experiences that help to create art: the ambiguity of language; dreams in which something is ‘seen from a different angle;’ unexpected questions; the in-betweens that overlap yet blend;’ following wonder wherever it takes you—to things you cannot see clearly but can only imagine. Each of these poems encourages the ‘habit of surrender’ to both the fear and the lure of ‘blurry things.’  Let these poems sweep you away from the everyday into the extraordinary!

In Blurry Things Nancee Cline shares her love of the soft ambiguous borders between sleeping and waking; between history and memory; between the past that shapes us and the future that calls us. She writes about the acquisition of language with humor and tenderness. Her poems express gratitude and wonder for each flowing and flowering season of life.
