Overview
"Absent The" was written by Steve Brightman in October 2012, at his usual rate of one poem per day. "The" is absent from his work in this chapbook, minus one reference in his title poem. "You, friend, are no Sisyphus.You may have your boulders.We all have our boulders."But we don't all have to push.Step off that pathway andwatch that boulder roll on by."It will come to rest someplace.It will not be going any place soon.It will be there if you want it."- His Only World"The Logic of Meteors" is a peculiar look at how weather is, more frequently than not, a peripheral character in the lives we lead. "This summer isthe summer ofunfolded wingsand skyscrapertestaments." -- Umbrellas on Decks"The branches werea symphony of whipsin the wind." -- Symphony of Whips"There is never a vacuum between seasons, there is never an absence here." -- The New Empty
