"Young has always stood out for his sharp humor, boundless poetic energy, and sheer readability. If adventurous poetry can sometimes feel like a tenuous tightrope walk, Young''s poems feel more like zip lines."—The Boston Globe
"This book reads like a long, breathless thank-you for life''s seemingly random jumble of beauty, strangeness, tenderness, and joy."—Los Angeles Times
Fall Higher is a major collection by one of America''s most inventive and entertaining writers. In this paperback release, Dean Young''s work contends with the challenges of love, wryly cataloging mistakes, deterioration, and broken vows. Young''s humor is as sharp as ever, and coupled with a vulnerability that renders Fall Higher his most intimate collection to date.
"The True Apology Takes Years"
The true apology takes years.
Terrible dry eyes!
The tree rings grow closer and closer together
but the nail is swallowed.
Great heaps of rubble are moved up and down the shore.
Finally a dance is performed to complete the forgiveness,
stamping out small fires,
the whole palladium decorated with thistles
like the last twenty pages of a Victorian novel.
Now that your hunger is gone you''re welcome to the banquet . . .
