In twelve abstract prose poems, this collection explores the onset of anticipatory grief and the idea that love is not enough. It uses the non sequitur and the nonsensical to illustrate the creeping dread of saying goodbye to someone not yet gone and the lingering presence of someone long gone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eIn metaphor that juxtaposes imagery of the natural world and the mundane, this collection examines how it feels to reminisce and yearn all at once. Poems such as “The Wretched” and “Inclement Weather Evacuation” draw upon the nostalgia of forgotten love, while those including “Fiberglass Heart” and “Untitled (Late Spring)” consider foretelling the end of love. \u003cem\u003eWire Rings\u003c\/em\u003e seeks to explore the many ways that love can be lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003eDaria Deptula is an author and early childhood educator.
