Singing Horse Press (paperback, 01/30/2020)
*New & Noteworthy:Gillian Parrishs second collection,supermoon(Singing Horse), begins by drawing special attention to light in its fractals, either reflected off the snowflakecaught on a childs finger or off the blood flowing from a war-torn skull. The balance between wonder and sorrow are tenuously negotiated. Extrapolated through tight lyrics, Parrishs ear is dramatic and finely attuned to the hurting worlds need for comfort and music. Though these poems press up against a world of deep heartache, Parrish demonstrates, with assistance from other lyricists,a faith in collective song. Whether through government shutdown and homelessness or tornadoes and snowstorms,supermoonemerges, haunted yet harmonious.
