River Light

Poetry. Writing the natural world Chris Olander cracks down to the elements, his senses, the crystal beings themselves, trees, birds, fish, bear, big cats, mountains, and his central metaphor, the river—water purls throughout, rivers, creeks, streams—these crystal beings in their motions and flow. The sacred. RIVER LIGHT offers us the ecopoet's gut choice, commodity and pollution versus natural reverence. His elemental writing lets us see, feel, taste the way to go.
